title: Google navigation on a html5 Android app
body: <p>I just wanted to know if someone can explain why is this happening to me.</p>
  
  <p>I am developing a mobile app using phonegap and jquerymobile and one of the features of the app is to guide the user using a navigation tool.</p>
  
  <p>For iOS we have choose Waze. It is really easy to add it:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;a href=" waze://q=Adress"&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and it works! It works if we run the app using safari or even if we build a native app using phonegap.</p>
  
  <p>The problem comes when using Android. For android we are using Google Navigation. The code we are using is:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;a href="google.navigation:q=Adress"&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>It is working ok, but <strong>only if we build a native app with our htlm code</strong> using phonegap but it is not working if we run the app on Android Web Browser.</p>
  
  <p>We dont want the user to install the app to use this feature... 
  The question is: Why? Why the html code is working ok inside a webview on a native app but it is not working on Android Browser? </p>
