tel: with #<code># does not work
-
I tried at first this code:
import webbrowser telnumer = '1234567890' webbrowser.open('tel:' + telnumber)
This works, but when i add the code #31# like this
import webbrowser telnumer = '1234567890' webbrowser.open('tel:#31#' + telnumber)
it doesn't.
#31# block caller id
What can i do?

I don't think there's anything you can do about this. From Apple's documentation about the tel URL scheme support:
To prevent users from maliciously redirecting phone calls or changing the behavior of a phone or account, the Phone app supports most, but not all, of the special characters in the tel scheme. Specifically, if a URL contains the * or # characters, the Phone app does not attempt to dial the corresponding phone number.
