Telephone link "tel:12345678" does not seem to work in Evernote Desktop (Mac):

I am using a program on my Mac to make phone calls via IP.

It would be handy if the hyperlink for example "tel:21066668" would work, but Evernote does not allow me to do that seemingly.  Evernote Desktop (Mac):

This version is unsupported, and even if it outright fails, it fails. So let’s book this under „be happy as long as it’s only this that fails“.

If you want to use the describe working method, you need to employ the new version. Which wouldn’t be the worst decision, you will need to do it anyhow, one day …

Just tried, and it works:

Add the phone number, select and copy it

Right click on the selected Phone number, from the dropdown menu choose „Add Link“.

Into the link field enter „tel:“ , and paste the copied phone number right behind it.

You now have a clickable telephone link that will place a call when clicked. In my case it opens Skype, but I think you could define any other app as standard phone app in MacOS / Finder settings.

An easier way is by a workaround: Acitvate the conversion of numbers in phone numbers in a mobile client. Add the number there, it will convert into a clickable / phoneable link. After it synced, the same link appears on the Mac client, and is clickable there as well.

Thank you, but in my end it looks like this:

It is not possible to click "OK"......

Looks like you are using the old/legacy Evernote on Mac?

What PinkElephant is saying works for me on Mac with Evernote v10 but looks like this:

Looks like you are using the old/legacy Evernote on Mac? = Yes I am.....

In that case there is no option and it will not be updated. The old software is no longer supported.
