Is there a custom URL scheme which can launch Blackberry Messenger on Blackberry phones? I'm looking for something like "mailto" or "tel", where clicking it would open BBM and ideally let me pre-fill the text: share by BBM or similar. To be clear, this is not so I can send BBMs on behalf of the user: this is just to open the BBM app, by having the user click a link in a webpage viewed on their Blackberry.
A chat can be started using a URL like BBM. The PIN should use upper case characters. If the user isn't a BBM contact a card opens for the user to invite the contact to become a BBM contact. This doesn't allow you to supply text.
You can supply text if you use the invocation framework on BlackBerry 10. See this page for details.

I have an angular based website with a whatsapp share button using the url-scheme.
I'm trying to open whatsapp with text containing a URL. As in angular based sites, the site name contains an hashtag (%23). Like the following example:
whatsapp://send?text=Hello All%0AHow are you%0A%0Ahttp://www.example.com/%23/login
This works perfectly on android device.
However, on iOS, the whatsapp get opened but the text isn't imbeeded in the input area. (specifically version 9 as I only have devices of that version)
Any Suggestions ?
[iOS] I'd like to make facebook messenger bot that sends a URL. Once the URL is tapped, I want it to open the URL in native safari.app instead of an in-app browser in Messenger.app. I tried Safari-search URL scheme, but it doesn't work. Is there any way to open native safari by modifying URL without modifying iOS native source code because, you know, I can't make any change for FB messenger native app?
Typical scenario:
I am managing bot and send FB message with amazon product URL, let's say, https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00T85PMWY/.
The receiver tap the url.
Safari will open and show the page.

I've noticed that on iPhone users who are using the Outlook app and do not have the native mail app configured, that when they click on mailto links it prompts them to create a new email account in iOS, instead of opening the Outlook app.
Is there anyway to have Outlook set as the default for mailto links on the iPhone?
iOS doesn't currently support changing the default apps used for composing email and the like.
Instead of 'mailto:' protocol you can use below protocol to open outlook app
ms-outlook://compose?to=joe#example.com&subject=Hello
Duplicate, Already solved here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/33812714/1360730
To test try typing
ms-outlook://compose?to=a#a.com&subject=aaaa in the address bar on safari and see whether the outlook app opens up.
So your href would look something like,
<a href="ms-outlook://compose?to=a#a.com&subject=aaaa"/>
From the upcoming iOS 14 on, this will be an option that users can set.
Set default email and browser apps.
With iOS 14, you can set a third‑party app as the default email or browser app systemwide.

Somebody knows how to send a message through Viber inside my app?
I've been trying send:
viber://[local] (ex. viber://63648018)
viber://[domestic] (ex. viber://08963648018)
viber://[international] (ex. viber://+498963648018)
with no success.
Any idea?
Unfortunately there's no such option available in Viber since version 5.6, according Viber's support.
You can share a message, using Viber, but you can not send it to a specific user: you'll be prompted to select one in you user's list.
The URL scheme is:
viber://forward?text=foo
After you installed the Facebook or twitter, we get an opton "Send to FaceBook" or "Send to Twitter" appearing in RIM's native app camera. For example, if you select a photo in RIM's native Camera app or Media Center app and click Menu key, the "Send to Facebook" is listed. After you click on it, it seems to invoke the installed facebook app and pop up a screen so that you can send the photo to facebook.
My question is, how to add our own option to any file like photo, video etc
Your custom app can add a custom menu item to some native BB apps (e.g. Camera, Calendar, etc).
To start with - check the documentation on how to do this. Also check some JDE samples on this (should be present on your PC as a part of BB SDK).
