Used to be a great app but stopped working with Android 13

Easy to use

Simple to set up and to use, as all apps ought to be. You select numbers and images from your contacts or add them manually, decide whether its for text or dial, and save. On the home screen you can combine shortcut files into a folder tile to simplify use - I have a business and a family set. The only downside I have found is that when Android updates, all the titles revert to "Better Direct Dial", and there doesn't seem to be a way to edit tiles.

Doesn't work on Mi10 (MIUI12 Global, Android 10). When choosing a widget, there isn't a Better Direct Dial Widget in the list.

Does not work on my Xiaomi Redmi K20 device. After installation, I cannot add shortcut to the phone number - the better direct dial app does not exists in the widgets list.
