I have a Link widget that should open my native email client.

I use this mailto:someone@example.com?Subject=Hello%20again (source: https://www.w3schools.com/tags/tryit.asp?filename=tryhtml_link_mailto) and on iOS the email clients opens but on Android nothing is happening.

However if i go in chrome to the link on Android my email client is opening.

Does anybody has some idea how to fix this?

I am also wondering why it doesn't work. Did you figure out how to get it to work?

No I wasn't able to figure out why it doesn't work so I made a NodeJS server and send the info to there and made it an automatic system.
