create direct dial shortcut

Hello,

I would like to be able to create a direct dial shortcut on home screen from inside dw for a specific contact, something like: long press contact -> more-> create direct dial shortcut.
When I will tapp this shortcut on the home screen the phone will dial that contact number.

The default app of the phone has this but I don't like that it adds a 'phone picture' to the contact picture in the shortcut.

Thanks

Go into Contact Details, long-press the phone number you are interested in, select Create shortcut to home, select dial or message. On the home screen you get the contact photo with a small phone/message symbol on top.

Hello,

I just did all these things, but the shortcut didn't appear. May be some settings are blocked by phone?

I have Xiaomi 11 Lite 5G NE, MIUI 12.5.8, Android 11

Try allowing dw contacts to create shortcuts in the system permissions settings.
