        public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) {
            if (url.startsWith("tel:")) {
                Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_CALL, Uri.parse(url));
                startActivity(intent);
                return true;
            }
            return false;
        }
