This Contact Manager is a Keeper

This contacts manager is an app that will stay for ever on your iPhone once you try it. After you open it up you will see that the developer was thinking about the you and what you'd want to do.

Within each contact you can e-mail or text with one tap....and it will keep a history of them within that contact. So if you want to know, or document, when you sent a text, e-mail or phone call to a particular person, all you have to do is pull them up and look under the History tab.

You can easily create and maintain groups of contacts, and not only that, but you can send group e-mail or texts to the whole group at once, which will then be recorded in each contacts history.

Any contact app will let you call with one touch, but how about calling through Skype?
By clicking a couple of boxes is settings, your phone will be able to open Skype, sign you in and place your call.... Nothing short of remarkable.

If you spend any time texting, e-mailing or phoning on your iPhone, you owe it to yourself to at least try this app. There is even a free trial version. But for a mere $4.99 I am a believer.

This app has a fatal flaw for any app that dials phone numbers: after pressing dial it allows the OS to display another modal dialog box asking you to press call or cancel. That is a fail. I have used other contact managers that don't have that situation. Plus, the free version is absolutely unusable with its constant pop up messages.

Hi Steve,

I was wondering if the app has a backup feature so that we can backup all the links and/or data that we put into the app?

Thank you for your comment. The extra popup you mentioned is added by Apple if you want to return to the app after your call is complete. You will notice that the other dialer apps that don't have this pop-up do not return to the app upon completion. If you see one that does, without the pop-up, do let me know.

Currently all the standard data gets written to the iPhone address book and backed up like your standard contact info. In the future we will be providing ways to backup the additional data entered within the app.

Thanks for your info.
