The beauty of a one-tap shortcut is you can treat it like any other

Keeping in mind a WIDGET is completely different from a SHORTCUT,
last night, after testing that out, I wrote up how anyone can easily
create both a one-tap & two-tap shortcut to call a specific phone number.

This provides yet another way for a direct-dial icon on your homescreen.
But, given it uses shortcuts, it also enables entire folders of the icons.

Each icon can have the profile photo of the person or entity being dialed.
