React native Linking library does it. ex: Linking.openURL(‘tel:xxxxxxxxx’);

I agree that Expo should include the permission in that case. Given the huge list of permissions Expo is already asking for, adding one extra permission wouldn’t make much of a difference.

Besides, the Expo client is mostly used by developers/testers; most production apps are distributed through standalone builds, so it’s more important for Expo to support standalone builds than saving an additional permission on the client.

@FakhruddinAbdi you should make a feature request here: https://expo.canny.io/feature-requests
