Contails new interface and features

September 7th, 2009

After a series of tests with mobile phones users, we  we decided to make some radical changes in the service.

It came up that people don’t need nor expect fancy interface… they want things to be simple and easy to use. It’s a knowledge you gain through experience (reading dozen of books about it won’t teach you anything). So here we are, with the new simple interface, few features added and few removed.

New features are:

  • Ability to share contacts with your friends registered on Contails.com.
  • Eventuality to separate the list of contacts for the various devices. If you have several different phones (eg private and business), by using labels, you can create separate contacts lists for each of those phones.

We hope you’ll enjoy what we did to  the service.
