How to add a widget for direct dialing a contact on your Android
Widgets are similar to shortcuts, helping you access different features and apps directly from your Android smartphone's Home screen. By default, your Android device comes with some built-in widgets. To begin adding a widget, access the Home screen where you want the icon that lets you quick dial on Android. Touch-and-hold on a space on the Home screen (or pinch it with two fingers on Huawei smartphones) to bring up a menu, and then tap Widgets.
The widgets drawer opens, and you can scroll through all the widgets available on your Android smartphone, categorized by their corresponding apps. The widget you want is under Contacts.
The widget we are looking for is called Direct dial or Speed dial, depending on your phone. Touch-and-hold on it to enter placing mode.
TIP: The Contact widget in this category offers an alternative to the method of creating a Contact shortcut illustrated in 5 ways to manage Android Home screen shortcuts.
In placing mode, you can see a preview of the Home screen page you started from. Drag your widget to where you want to place the Android call shortcut.
When you decide on a spot, lift your finger off the screen to place the widget there. As soon as you release the Direct dial (Speed dial) widget, Android displays a list of all your contacts. Tap on the number you want to speed dial. If you have more numbers in your agenda for one contact, that entry is expanded, allowing you to choose between them.
Selecting the contact to call finishes adding the shortcut to where you dragged it on your Home screen. There is a phone receiver on its icon, letting you know what it does. Tap on the widget to immediately call the contact whose name is displayed.
