Connecting Quickly With Your Contacts

As you build up your list of contacts on your phone, you can use Quick Contact for Android to quickly chat, email, text message, place a call, or to locate your contacts. Quick Contact for Android is a special set of icons that you can use to quickly and easily connect to a contact.
