Thanks to our exclusive reporting earlier this year , there was absolutely nothing about Amazon’s Fire phone that came as a surprise â€" including the public’s reaction to the handset . The handset definitely has some unique features such as Firefly, tilt controls and the 3D effects in the user interface, but none of them appear to be helping to move a significant amount of inventory at this point.
Now, users can get a bit of a taste for what the Fire phone has to offer without actually buying one, because a new free app adds some simple tilt gesture functionality to the iPhone .
Inspired by the Fire phone’s tilt gestures, app developer Mobile Simplified created a simple quick dialer called Tilt. The app is a bit rough around the edges, with an interface that could definitely use a few coats of paint, but it works exactly as advertised.
With Tilt, users can quickly and easily call their favorite contacts without a single tap.
Quickly tilting the phone to one side or the other cycles through the user’s favorite contacts. Then, the app takes things a step further â€" once the desired contact is reached, simply lift the phone to your head to place a call.
Tilt for the iPhone is a free app and it can be downloaded by following the link below.
