ABContacts By: Andrea Vettori Developer's Notes: ABContacts was developed after our five stars ABGroups app (now ABContacts Lite). The app works with the same archive of the built-in Contacts app so everithing you do in ABContacts will be visible in Contacts and Phone app and converseley. The advanced features will be very useful to those are using the iPhone for business or to those that have many contacts. |

Short Version of the Review- ABContacts has replaces the native "Contacts" app that ships on every iPhone and iPod Touch.
ABContacts (ABC for the rest of this review) uses the same information as the native app so it can reaplce it without any loss of data or functionality. The functionality GAINED however is well worth the cost of the app.
ABC shares all of the features found in the Lite version but adds additional functionality.
Thanks to ACB I can add new contacts faster and easier than before. Thanks to ABC's filtering options I can quickly isolate apps according to company, city, state, country etc... Thanks to ABC I can quickly and easily email contact information to others. In other words, ABC actually lets me USE the contacts information for more than simply pulling up lists of contacts.
For me the best feature of ABC, and the one that makes it worthwhile even without the additional features, is the ability to double tap a contact and pull up all the contact info. Another tap and the call is started or the email prepped. It is a quick, easy way to go from contact to call.
Quick Take
Value: High
Would I Buy Again: Yes
Learning Curve: Low
Who is it for: Anyone with numerous contacts
What I like: Adds functionality to the anemic Contacts app, makes pulling up information much faster
What I Don’t: Takes a second or two longer to load than the native Contacts app. Sometimes the double-tap on the contact opens the contact instead of pulling up all the information at once
Final Statement: I'm glad I bought it. It stays until something even better comes along. Worth the $2!!

It's weird that I can add a contact but have to go back to the regular contact manager to delete one...hmmmm
Just tap edit on the contact list and the red minus button to delete the contact !
