Can my M8 browser detect phone numbers so I can click on them to call?

There is one feature missing that I like from my iPhone and that is that the iPhone would recognise telephone numbers within browsers, messages, whatsapp etc. And you would be able to just click them to call.

Is there an app to download to add this feature in?

I use the Chrome browser on my M8 and it has the capability you want.
 
Hmm I'm using Chrome beta and it doesn't seem to pick up numbers unless it's from the google search results

Likewise.

Beta is my standard browser also but just checked on "stable" Chrome and it doesn't pick up numbers either, only email or web addresses.

Works like that in emails and texts.....seems to work in most browsers also.
