On the iPhone, a maps.google.com URL is intercepted and loaded by the native google maps application. I would like do the same on Android, but Google Maps is being loaded in
I really suffered a lot from this but finally got answer .
Don't use href , it will not work .
For Navigation - window.open("google.navigation:q=23.3728831,85.3372199&mode=d" , '_system');
For Search - window.open("geo:0,0?q=pizza" , '_system');
