zapDial
zapDial allows fast and easy dialing of phone numbers in your addressbook, just by drawing a gesture on your iPhone. So you avoid browsing through the addressbook, and selecting numbers after a search. Just an easy movement on the touchscreen does the work for you and connects you to the person you want to talk to.
This is how zapDial works:
1) First select a phone number from your addressbook and record a individual gesture for the selected number. Add as many contacts as you want to zapDial.
2) Now just draw the gesture on the touchscreen to dial the desired number.
Features:
gesture recognition to dial numbers and send texts
recording function for individual gestures
direct link to the internal addressbook
options for user interface feedback
a short video on youtube shows the workflow:

I bought your zapDial, but it is a complete chaos. When I choose A, XY is dialed?! Gestures are very different, not similar at all. Please, you have to fix it. Oh, well, I have iPhone 4, OS 4.1.

Hi Matjaz,
First step, please watch the video tutorial posted above.
How did you record the gestures?
Keep in mind that a gesture is not a letter like “x, h,… ”
A gesture consists of a single stroke. For some examples have a look at the help section of the app. There is everything mentioned, how you avoid user errors.
The recognizer works very well.
For further questions,… you are welcome :)
Kind regards
Stefan

I seem to be able to only save eight single movement identification tags to help me dial these people faster. Why is this happening?
I love this idea for an app and am excited to tell all of my friends about it but this bug popped up. I love this idea because the voice recognition never works properly! This app makes driving and calling someone a whole lot more safe then just dialing, messing around with the stupid voice recognition, (I haven’t tried your voice recognition software yet), or fiddling around with your blue tooth device!
So in conclusion, please tell me if I’m doing something wrong, or if there is a bug in your program. Thank-you for your time and consideration. My phone number is xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, and again my email address is xxxxxxxxxxxxxx. Feel free to call me if further contact would be helpful!
Yours Sincerely,

Dear Lisa.
Thank you for using zapDial! I tried to reproduce the error you mentioned but it doesn’t happen to me. I’m able to put in 8+ contacts and select them via gestures (please read the help section in the app for advices on recorded gestures).
BUT THANK YOU, I found a strange behaviour of the app, when it comes to the 8th contact. Suddenly you can’t see its number, but still can call it via recorded gesture. Maybe you could confirm this behaviour too? (please with some additional info: which iOS/iPhone) I’m working on this issue and will press forward to a new update which will fix this. Thank you for your feedback!
Some suggestions I have for you to give a try:
Please read the help section, yes I know, I mention it again ;)
Try to delete and re-install the app and re-record your gestures.
Don’t hesitate to contact me again if you have additional questions!
Best
stefan
p.s. i replaced your contact details in your post with “x” to avoid spam attacks.
