About Simple Dialer Widget

Place phone calls from your home screen without opening the dialer app!

The widget offers a dial pad, shows your call log or all your contacts. The widget is resizeable and the log and contacts tab are scrollable too.
Also, you can fully customize the widget (change every color, text size, ...) and put the widget on your Lockscreen (later requires Android 4.2, I recommend to disable the "dialer"-tab when placing the widget on the lockscreen)

4 Stars, the widget works perfectly, and it looks amazing too. It does everything you would expect from a dialer alternative that looks this good. Unfortunately after installing I noticed some heavy battery loss, even charging was very slow. Uninstalled and battery problem was gone. Used the widget on my Xperia Z, which is by default not known for its great battery life, maybe other devices will have better luck!

However there's quite a bit of lag when you scroll through the contacts section and it's kind of annoying how frequently the widget keeps crashing. Any help on how to fix this?

Excellent widget! Not only is this a great dialer and call log widget but it is the BEST of all the other cheesy "favorites widgets". Great job!

Remember the old days when a phone was a phone and you could dial by pressing one button? Well this is the only app that brings that feature back to newer android phones. You can resize the app, change colors, access contacts, and more. The only draw back is, pressing 1 to get to voice messages is now on the icon and the lower left, and another click to get to voice mail. But voicemail is still available from Android 5 pull down. That is if the stupid google search doesn't keep popping up. This app works without flaws on Android 5 and gets you to the phone keypad in the home screen, or second screen in one swipe. Finally an app that turns smart phones back into what they should be, a phone. Oh ya, and you can make the numbers REAL BIG if you want,. Just go to settings and change the font size, I settled in 48 point and bright white numbers.

I really like this app. It works well, and being able to add it to the lock screen is awesome. The one thing that really bothers me though, is the design layout. The lower icons are too close to the edge, on the bottom, and there is a lot extra space at the top. It needs to be centered. It would be even better if the user had control over the placement. If this gets fixed, ill change my rating to 5 stars. Great job on the app though, it's excellent.

I like this widget. Some small things though. - No option to scale all icons in widget - No option for different views (e.g. tiles) - Not customizable in Zooper Widget Pro - No divider lines in dialer - Icons to close to bottom of dialer Still 4 stars cause it has lots of potential

I'm looking for a phone dialer that looks like the android system theme. Elegant black. But can't find one, this app comes close, but it lacks the ability to change the default phone style on smartphone android cellphones. You would think that android would have a black phone theme since my phone is Android Lollipop phone.

The widget is having troubles updating itself which results in extremely high battery usage. This happens in KitKat OS. (didn't have any problems with Jellybean OS)

N70%
by N####:

And this problem pretty much renders it useless... I use the widget on one of my lock screens just in case a friend wants to borrow my phone to make a quick call. But because I have an LG G 2 pressing the buttons in quick succession always engages the knock off feature and my screen locks. Can you fix? Otherwise the app is useless to me and I have to uninstall. Great concept though

This was everything I was.I looking for.... Highly customizable.... I am so disappointed it just freezes and locks up on my Samsung Galaxy Mega 6.3 tried uninstalling and reinstalling to no avail.....

I've been searching an app or widget of this kind and was not able to find even one and I whoa I got this one which solved the purpose for me completely. Thanks a lot developers. Suggestion: Please add a alphabet scroll for contacts tab that would be gr8 and easy to search thru the contacts.

Samsung placed contacts, Logs and dialer together. It makes it messy when everytime log opens when you actually want to open dialer.

Installed the dialer and Jane not had enough time to test it however, it installed easily, no issues so far and was easy to set up. I do not need it on the lock screen, I use it as a normal widget on my home screen. Works well so far. I will update my rating once I have tested it some more. Not so sure why there are negative comments, relating to added features, it's supposed to be simple. If you want complex use the stock Android dialer.

Would be great to have possibilities to resize the icons(not only phone button ) and option to change the pop up's colour On dialer.

Great widget as always. To those complaining about lock-screen troubles, read the description.

One thing I would like to see updated is in case I'm writing a number while in a call. At the moment the widget can't hold the number if the call ends.

A very nice widget but not very nicely designed! I give 5 Stars if u add the option to unlock the phone after pressing the call button.

It's very useful what I was looking from a long time. But it is little slow while rendering the logs.

Maybe i am not understanding this app but I want an app that I can use to dial people before I unlock my screen. Can this app do that?

please add search feature on contact tab,so we dont need to choose "open contact"

Z70%
by Z####:

The widget is almost perfect. I like the resize feature, color and transparency configuration. I like the log tab and favorites tab, those are very useful. You need to make that, if the contact has a default number among all the numbers registered, to dial that one from the direct dial button. so far, every time I try to direct-dial a contact and it has more than one phone number, the widget will ask me to choose which number. That's ok if I'd click over the contact, then it is ok to let me choose the right number.

Needs so much work to be done in it.....it needs clear all function on long pressing the backspace buttton.......Needs a better looks with the dialer icon...........Most imp of all it needs the latest Lollipop or marshmallow material design...many more that u need to look into..well so far so good guys........

I am using android 4.2.i am using this app for lockscreen widget.it is working well but one thing is missing. When i dail the number and touch the dail icon then it's goes to fixed sim only.not asking sim1 or sim 2. And now all phones are dual sim.so kindly update.

I've uninstalled, sadly, bc the trash can on my phone is very aggressive... it swoops down & easily swallows widgets if I try to scroll on them but they are stuck for a split second. I won't keep this app bc, as much as I like it, if it disappears off my screen for any reason, I then have to reset all my color/appearance settings every time. I'd gladly pay to have app retain my settings, so that I could just replace widget on screen without having to reset it each time. Thanks.

Unlock position. I have a note 3 and its very convenient other than i would like to place on the bottom instead of default top area

This app is v.v.v.. gud but I have 1 smal problem with it that it dont allow you to search contact in contact list. Make a space to search contact as per user want.

Now, I don't have to open up my dialer, saves time!.

C70%
by C####:

No widget anywhere to be found. App symbol showed up on screen and under apps, but no widget where my widgets are. Rebooting didn't help either. Still no widget ... UPDATE ... Works when NOT installed on SD card. Sorry, this is very klutzy and very ugly to look at. Too ugly for my awesome smartphone.

K70%
by K####:

In direct contact mode it should use the default number, not ask to choose one. If a contact has only one number, doesn't dial until unlocking the phone. Doesn't seem to update the list of contacts often enough. It would be useful to select which group to show and an option to show frequently contacted. The button at the bottom that opens the contacts list could be optional too.

I like the widget. No more clicking the phone icon to get to the dialler :) I like the customization options and the dialler is quite good. I would like to have the call history sorted in a manner that shows the contact once not 7 times if called 7 times .
