Groups: Drag & Drop Contacts ManagementNOTE: Group SMS and Group ringtones are NOT supported by 3rd party apps.

"..Groups is a steal for anybody who is serious about contact organization."

Groups takes contacts group management to a totally different level. With a highly innovative user interface, you get to manage your contacts the iPhone way; drag them, drop them or trash them. As they say, "a Drag & Drop is worth a thousand operations"... or something like that!
With Groups you can:
1. Create, rename, delete, sort, color, hide and navigate contact groups - all in a single view!
2. Drag & Drop single or multiple contacts into groups. Tap and hold on a Contact to start dragging.
3. *Send Mass Email to any Group. Mail Groups with individually set To, Cc and Bcc selections (Bcc, Cc options available for firmware 2.2 and above)
4. Send Mass Email to only a subset of a selected Group. Simply perform a search and filter on contacts you wish to email.
5. Dial, SMS, Email and visit URL/Map Locations of individual contacts by tapping on their name for quick dialing (i.e. use it as a mini-dialer)
6. Search through your entire contact list from a single view. Type a name, a number or anything else you wish to find in a contact (URL, Address, Notes etc) and Groups will list them all.
7. Use the built-in smart T9 Dial Pad to make quick calls and quickly filter on matched names and numbers while you dial.
8. Use 9 built-in ready to use and helpful 'Smart Groups' to help categorize and manage your contacts the way you wish: 1) Singles (Contacts not in any Group), 2) No Name, 3) No Email, 4) No Phone, 5) No Image, 6) No Map, 7) Businesses and 8) Birthdays, 9) Photos
9. Trash, delete and preserve contacts by dragging them to the 'Trash' Group. This would delete the contact permanently from the iPhone/iPod touch and then from your Computer when Synced or Pushed but will allow you to drag these back to normal groups, and thus restore them at a later point, unless you empty the Trash.
10. Keep your contacts and groups in sync with the built in Address Book, your Laptop or Mobile Me (Please see note below for Windows).
Your address book, too, deserves respect. Groups is the only contact grouper tool you'll ever need. It's rich with features and offers unmatched usability.
Important Notes & Known issues:
___________________________________
* Groups does not have compatibility issues with 3rd Party Apps. On Windows, it is iTunes that deals with Outlook for syncs. iTunes syncs groups created on the phone with Outlook Folders, not categories, so please find your synced contacts there. These are all Outlook issues and apps on the iPhone have no control over this.
* On iPhone 3.0, users get a confirmation prompt for dialed numbers (this applies to all Dialer Apps). This is not controllable from within the app. Please kindly read our FAQ on this
* Syncing does not work with Exchange
* Please refrain from using the camera to take snaps from the 'Edit contact' feature. This is a known problem where the Camera take up too much memory and in turn kills the app. Please do so from the Contacts app instead.
* Mass SMS is currently NOT supported
* Managing Ringtones not supported
