The url to launch email and start a new email on an iphone is “mailto://someone@somwhere.com”. I just want to launch the email app, dropping the user at the main menu, or inbox.
“mailto:” starts composing a new blank email
I’ve tried “mail:”, “email:” and a few others. Is there no way to just launch the email app?
I don’t think so, since the whole idea of the url schemes is to launch another app given some context in your own app. Watch a specific YouTube vid, write an email, etc.
in addition, this sounds like a weird requirement – why would you just want to send them to their email client without having them compose an email?
