We have used a open-source software to develop an event and conference app (both IOS and Android). We hired a developer who added internal message capability to the apps (we write a message and everyone who installed our apps can see our message in the message area of the apps). But when we add hyperlinks to the text within a message we sent to all (including http:// in front of www), the app users can't click on it. Someone suggested we should purchase what is called "short code" that costs $1000 a month to be able to do that!!! wow! Any alternative? any feedback or suggestions would be highly appreciated...
