Ratings and reviews

Although, on the whole, the app/widget is good in what it offers, it has an annoying habit of refreshing & doing what it want & not what you want it to do. For example, contact photos. Laboriously set what photos you want for each contact only to find that the next time you use it it has refreshed often leaving you with no photo at all or all contact photos have been downgraded & pixellated. If the developer wants to provide a system where your contact has a photo, at least make sure it works.

It's probably a good app but to create a direct dial widget for a single contact is not particularly straightforward. In fact, I had to install some other app of yours (Contact Ograniser?), and still don't have the widget. Through Contact Options and the plus sign I got somewhere where "Loading" is hanging forever. Useless.

I discovered I could use the 1x1 widget and expand it to fit my 7 favourites. Has scrolling, or you can stretch the widget to fit all the contacts. Excellent! Easy and quick to dial calls and send texts.
