55 The Basics
Connecting Quickly With Your Contacts
As you build up your list of contacts on your phone, you can use the Quick
Contact for Android feature to quickly chat, email, text message, place a
call, or locate your contacts. Quick Contact for Android is a special set of
icons that you can use to quickly and easily connect with a contact.
 Open your Contacts list and tap the contact’s picture.
Tapping the contact’s picture opens a Quick Contact dialog box
displayed directly below the contact’s name. It displays icons for all of
the ways you can communicate with that contact. The available icons
depend on the information you have saved for that contact.
