speed dialing

One-touch phone calls

Speed dialing is a telephone feature that lets you call frequently used numbers by pressing a single button or short code instead of dialing the full number.

The contacts are stored in memory and assigned to specific keys: I have my mother on speed dial.

To have someone on speed dial suggests frequent contact or ready access.
