Contacts 4+

The primary reason we all carry smart phones is to make phone calls. And we all store our phone numbers in a marginal address book. I wish I had the ability to create my own template for address book entries. For example I would make Title a default field in my personal template. I shouldn’t have to add the Job Title field every time I want to add someone to my address book. Similarly, someone who never uses this field shouldn’t have to include it in their default template. I also wish I had the ability to arrange the order of telephone numbers and email addresses. This was an option many IOS versions ago. I miss it. Also, if I look up a contact while I am on a telephone call. I shouldn’t have to re-look up that contact after I hang up. It should still be displayed when I go to my address book.

Now I seen many reviews on this app, some are negative and some are positive. Which is a good and balanced opinions on this on this app with an approximately 3.4 star rating. Now I don’t get the science to this but I am going to break and down for yall how I feel about this app. First all I want to say is the design of the logo of this app. It is alr, it could have been better but it’s solid and plain and simple as well. And when opening the app you see all your contacts in place which is really good. Which is also really good is that fact the contacts are in abc order. Wow!! Brilliant right. This is what I call making ur life easier. This is app is so unique it adds and abc order contacts. You can even add different types of catergories too which is awesome and great of this app. Now I haven’t made different types of catergories for my contacts but maybe will soon. And now for the final part, the quality of this app. Now I heard some people say that hate it or not hate it, I like this type of debate and now what I think of it? Well I got to say it is solid. I don’t get the fact that people hate it but I think it’s good so yea guys that is my opinion on this app and I’ll give this app approximately a 5 star, I mean why are people complaining about this app it is just the contacts app bruh.

I just upgraded to IOS 17.1. The NEW Contacts feature is terrible. I don’t put that many pictures in my contacts, but I tried to do it today.
When you tap on the contact name, you wind up with a HUGE section at the top that has the contact name , a place for a HUGE poster, and a line of icons for if you want to message, call, etc. Again, this is half the screen. You have to scroll down, and scroll, and scroll to get to the rest of the info. Very annoying. If you stupidly decide to do a “poster” then you can select from a photo which of course needs cropping and never really fits right in the circle allowed. You can do letters in Colors with your choice of font. Wow! I’m underwhelmed. It too had to fit in the circle. Good luck. You can select from about 15 or so emojis, or you can draw your own comedic pic of some person, by going through a zillion choices to create the image. And if you don’t like any of it, I found no way to get back to the original screen that is blank but still takes up nearly half the page. . I had to take pictures of the entire contact info page, delete that contact , and then put it in new. IOW Apple did it again. They did a big change to a feature that really worked great as it was. Waste of time. It’s ugly and cumbersome now. I want the previous address book back. It was simple and worked just fine.
