I know Siri isn't always possible, but telling Siri to call XYZ's home phone, or work phone, etc., is much faster than littering your home screen with peoples contacts ... just my opinion and I'm stuck with it.

Taylor Sent: Sunday, April 19, 2020 2:36 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: how to add contacts to home screen Hello Dennis, You ask an interesting question. So, many, many years ago, say around 2008 / 2009 , when one could jailbreak an iPhone, there was a way to add a specific contact directly to the Home screen in order to more quickly call the contact. As far as I know, such a feature was never offered in an a commercial release of iOS. Moreover, I haven’t heard of anyone jail-breaking iOS in quite a long time.
