TOPIC: What about apple/google url scheme reference

Hi all,
For some time i thought this would be very usefull find your spoken
route with location and destiny using your iphone maps.
Even using the phonenumber is possible (pushing just one link/button)
Hope geolocation html5 geolocation will be soon implemented!?

From Safari try this on your iphone: maps.apple.com/?daddr=San+Francisco,+CA&saddr=cupertino

Documentation Apple maps:
developer.apple.com/library/ios/ipad/#fe...f/doc/uid/TP40007899

From Safari try this on your iphone: comgooglemaps://?saddr=Berghem+NL&daddr=Oss+NL

GPS somethimes gives trouble.
So try make some changes and find out
Google maps has to be installed of course.
This should also work from android phone.

Documentation Google maps: developers.google.com/maps/documentation/ios/urlscheme

This is cool, but this is for apps, isn't it? How can you open the browser at a specific website? Or am I missing something?

Hi Daniel,

This is indeed only when you open websites that use Hotspot
on smartphone or tablet.
You could check in hotspot if the website is activated on smarphone or tablet
and make a choice that activates google maps with voice guided turn-by-turn.
I think it can be very helpfull.
I noticed that the link does work on imac safari but of course without the voice
