Open URL from point screen with browser if no protocol is provided

Georg D shared this problem 11 years ago
Solved

I've an POI open in the point screen (view mode). I tap the URL

http://www.keidelbad.de at the bottom and get the message "In your device is

missing an application for selected feature". Well, I'm absolutely sure

I've a browser for www pages installed ;-)


As the vast majority of links will be www / http links, please do not

force us to type http:// all the time, but please open URLs

without protocol in the browser.

Hello Georg,


thank you for a report. I'm fighting little bit with this, as clicking on simple text fields handle Android itself, but I think I found a working solution. So in next version this should be OK

Hm, in the post, the "http://" in front of the URL somehow appeared - I did not add it and I can't change the message...


For a POI with URL

  1. www.winterfeldt-schokoladen.de

(so no http:// in front of the URL) v2.20.2 on Sony Ericsson Xperia Pro, Locus tells me "In your device is missing an application for selected feature". I hoped it would open a browser.
