Call the people who matter with one tap on their photo — the beloved speed dial of classic mobile phones, reinvented for your iPhone. Assign your favorite contacts to positions on a rotatable 3D wall and reach them instantly: call, text, WhatsApp, Signal, email or FaceTime. • QUICK AND EASY 1x tap to call. 2x tap to text (SMS/iMessage). 3x tap to WhatsApp. 4x tap to email. 5x tap to FaceTime. You can change what each tap count does in Settings (including Signal), or long-press a contact for a menu with all its actions. You can even make single contacts always use WhatsApp for calls. • NO NUMBERS REQUIRED The app reuses the contacts already stored on your iPhone — no retyping numbers, email addresses or photos. If you change a contact in the Contacts app, the wall updates automatically. IMPORTANT: That is why Quick Fav Dial needs access to your contacts! Without access, the app cannot work and will forget all assignments after a restart (you can fix this later in your iPhone's Privacy settings). • ASSIGN SINGLE ACTION (NEW) Dedicate a position to exactly one action — e.g. "always WhatsApp Grandma" — no matter how often you tap. • UP TO 48 POSITIONS & 3D SCROLLING Enough space to visually group family, friends and colleagues in their own areas. Fast horizontal 3D scrolling — now also in landscape. • MULTIPLE ASSIGNMENTS By default the app stores the first phone number and email address of a contact. Want a different one? Enable "manual field selection" in Settings or assign the same contact to a second position — the app will ask which number or email to use (email texting enables iMessage instead of SMS). • COLOR THEMES & DARK MODE Twenty-one designs to match the display to your style. Prefer extra large photo buttons (e.g. for seniors or visual impairments)? Check out Quick Fav Dial XL.

I built this simply but helpful speed dial app for my father. He kept getting lost in the phone app. Therefore, the user guidance is deliberately designed to be simple and catchy. You can make both phone calls and FaceTime calls (video or audio only). No confusing options, no "nifty" abbreviations of abbreviations. Start SpeedDial, tap on a name and start the call. My wife was so excited that SHE has been using SpeedDial very intensively since then. Therefore, it is not only a support for elderly people who find it difficult to use modern user interfaces, but also and especially something for people who simply want to reach the 9 most important people in their lives with a fingertip. SpeedDial only has two screen pages. There are one to nine short dial entries on the main page.  The entries automatically make the best possible use of the available space. They are colorfully designed so that they are more catchy. You can set up the entries on the second page.  You only need the names and the associated phone numbers. If you do not want to use all of the nine possible entries, you simply leave the name slot empty. Entries without a name are not displayed on the main page. It's that easy... ... and the space saved will be used for the other entries, which then get more display space. Supports VoiceOver. Important: For security reasons, IOS does not allow any app to simply call a number. Therefore, a short question always appears when a phone call is intended. This can be answered immediately with a short tap. This security question is a very useful function and does not interfere. Have fun..
