Launch an iOS messenger from a phone screen saver

Is there a way to run the messenger on iOS from an HTML5 application made using PhoneGap? Can someone point me in the right direction?

Thank!

You can call another application in the iOS environment by creating a URL request with a specific scheme. therefore, to open an email or phone application, in your html,

    <a href="tel:+919900600233" class="call mobile"></a>
<a href="mailto:help@domain.com" class="email"></a>

When the user intercepts this hyperlink, the user will be sent to the appropriate applications. just like a messaging app use

<a href="sms:+919900600233" class="SMS"></a>
