The app has some great new features, one long awaited by many users: smart groups !

The app is still at 3.99$ but will be 4.99$ tomorrow when all worldwide app stores will be updated.

Two youtube demos are available :

Part 1 (overview and contacts)

The app now has five windows :
– Contacts
– Smart Groups

With Smart Groups you can create dynamic groups based on rules. Contacts will be filed in smart groups automatically. There are five different types of rules and they work on first name, last name, company, notes, job title, department, city, state, country, birthday and events fields.
Rules can be combined to create very powerful filters !
Moreover, Outlook users will be able to create smart groups on the phone that finally does not alter how contacts are shown in Outlook.

The dialer is associated with a smart search feature. You can search contacts using the dialer keypad. Spaces and special chars are supported as well as non english letters. Phonetic info are used if present.
You can also speed dial the first nine favorites by pressing and holding the corresponding key down.
