How do I get mailto links in iOS (safari) to open the Outlook app?

I've noticed that on iPhone users who are using the Outlook app and do not have the native mail app configured, that when they click on mailto links it prompts them to create a new email account in iOS, instead of opening the Outlook app.

Is there anyway to have Outlook set as the default for mailto links on the iPhone?

Instead of 'mailto:' protocol you can use below protocol to open outlook app

ms-outlook://[email protected]&subject=Hello

iOS doesn't currently support changing the default apps used for composing email and the like.
