About Contaqs - The Contact Manager
Contaqs is your virtual secretary dedicated to organising your address book to allow for fast, easy management
This enhanced address book makes it easy to browse, find, and connect with your friends, family, colleagues, and other contacts. Entries are elegantly shown with name, company, phone number, email, and photo – all done automatically by utilising contact information from your existing address book and your Facebook contacts. In-built "Smart Lists" automatically assign your contacts into groups based on shared attributes. Without any manual grouping required, Smart Lists batch together contacts by company, city, country, zip code and birthday, amongst many other traits.
Drag and drop functionality makes moving your contacts in and out of groups as easy as, well dragging and dropping! Moreover, with a single tap lies the ability to call, SMS or email an entire group. Finally the ability to action repetitive tasks without losing your patience and sanity!
The app also includes favorites, birthday reminders, export, and view on map abilities.
