title: Url scheme for making WhatsApp call programmatically from iOS app (voice call VOIP)?
body: <p>I have referred <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/41999491/how-can-i-place-a-whatsapp-call-from-an-ios-app">How can I place a WhatsApp call from an iOS app?</a> which states that this feature is currently not available in iOS and as per <em><a href="https://faq.whatsapp.com/en/iphone/23559013/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">WhatsApp FAQ Share Extension (Custom URL Scheme)</a></em> it has still not mentioned any schema for placing a call, document it has mentioned:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Placing a WhatsApp call(voice call VOIP)
  To make a WhatsApp call, simply open the chat with the person you want to call and tap Call  in the top right corner.
  </code></pre>

  <p>But placing a WhatsApp call from android is possible, Which I could not find in iOS.But placing WhatsApp call feature is available from phone contacts.</p>
  
  <p>So my doubt is whether it is currently available in iOS to place a WhatsApp (voip)voice call from my iOS app?</p>
  
  <p>If possible can you please suggest me with url schema(if available) for this just like place a chat from my app like this <strong>@"whatsapp://send?text=Hello%2C%20World!"</strong> as I couldn't find this?</p>
