Step 3: Fill in the fields according to your details. Let’s create a “Speed ​​Dial” profile and select “com.yourname.profile” as the identifier (it’s better to replace yourname with your name). You can write down a short description of the profile so that you can understand what he does even after a year.

Step 4: Scroll to the bottom of the list, find and select Web Clips, then Configure. Several fields have opened that need to be filled out.

Step 8: Click on the icon and make sure the call is to the right contact went. Unfortunately, iOS asks for permission to make calls, so you can’t make a call with one click, but two clicks are still more convenient.
