What contact app is everyone using

I am using pocketcm and wondered if there was something better out there that people are using.

Thanks

Re: What contact app is everyone using

I'm a huge fan of VITO FunContact... (and if you need a new sms app, you gotta check out VITO SMS-Chat)

other than that, the only other finger friendly contacts manager i know is the one that comes with SPB Mobile Shell. It's easy to use, and incredbily fast to find contacts with the search.


Unfortunatly, neither of those are free. sorry man

Re: What contact app is everyone using

I used PocketCM and it is a fine product.

I'm now using IContact and for me it is a better alternative.

Re: What contact app is everyone using

I have a related question about these contact apps. I tried the built in contact list and iContact so far. In both cases I have a really hard time controlling the scrolling list of names. In other words, it's always scrolling too far/fast, and if I try to slow it down it frequently opens a contact that I didn't want. I've tried with the stylus and finger, but it's bad either way.

In contrast, the iPhone/iPod touch scroll perfectly and each actual selection is exactly the one I wanted.

Using the contact list is the most annoying, frustrating part of this otherwise great phone. Am I missing something, like a sensitivity setting for the screen, or do they all work like that?

I had this same problem until I came across the cab file listed in this thread. It's one of the best things I've ever done to my touch.

Re: What contact app is everyone using

I'm using icontact with the Diamond skin. I have it mapped to the right softkey and it opens very quickly. That was the reason I switched from pocketcm, it took an extra second to load.

Re: What contact app is everyone using

Used Vito's FunContact and liked it, but I didn't like how long it took to load and I didn't like it running in the background.

I have since switched to PocketCM and find it nice and easy to use and it does load faster. Fast enough for me anyway.
