About sms: links
An sms: link (e.g. sms:+9779800000000) opens the device's default messaging app with a number — and optionally a pre-filled message — already entered, so tapping it starts a text in one step instead of typing the number by hand.
It only opens a pre-filled draft; nothing is sent automatically. The visitor still has to review it and hit send themselves. iOS and some Android messaging apps historically differ slightly in how they parse the pre-filled message, so in rare cases the number may open correctly while the message doesn't appear pre-filled.

Frequently asked questions
What is an sms: link?+
A link that opens the device’s messaging app with a number — and optionally a pre-filled message — already entered, so tapping it starts a text in one step.
Can I pre-fill the message?+
Yes — type a message and it’s automatically URL-encoded and appended to the link.
Does this send the text automatically?+
No — it only opens the messaging app with everything filled in. The recipient still has to review and hit send themselves.
Will this work the same on iPhone and Android?+
Mostly, though iOS and some Android messaging apps historically differ slightly in how they parse the pre-filled message parameter — in rare cases the message may not appear pre-filled even though the number does.
Can I create a QR code?+
Yes — every generated link can be turned into a downloadable QR code.
Is this tool free?+
Yes, completely free with no sign-up.
Does this tool store my phone number?+
No — the link is generated entirely in your browser and nothing is sent anywhere.
