The SMSTO format

SMSTO:+15550100100:Table 12 is ready to order

Spaces, dashes and brackets are removed from the number so every phone reads it.

Does the message send automatically?: No. The phone opens a ready-to-send text, and the person taps Send.
Can I use an international number?: Yes. Start it with + and the country code. Spaces, dashes and brackets are fine, and we remove them.
Does it open WhatsApp?: No, it opens the phone's own messaging app. For WhatsApp, make a link code with your wa.me link instead.
