You do NOT need to donate to use this app! If you don't know how to use your phone to create shortcuts, then don't write any reviews!

Installed this after the stock dialer shortcut kept on disappearing. Would be nice to be able to add call or message overlay icons and/or edit the text, since I might have multiple shortcuts for the same contact on the same screen.

If you start the app from your apps list, all you see is the instructions/donation screen. To actually use it you have to start the shortcut creation mechanism. Either long press on an empty screen area or click the + softkey.
