Contacts Plus 8.1.0.0
Among the numerous applications developed for such purposes, Contacts Plus aims to offer a really easy to use method of keeping all phone book entries at hand and ready for calling or texting.
Unsophisticated GUI focused on practicality
The appearance of this utility is as simple as it gets, without fancy graphics or any visual enhancements in sight. The layout is well thought-out and it offers quick access to the contacts stored on your phone.
Conveniently placed at the bottom of the screen, the main menu of Contacts Plus hosts all the functions and allows you to easily pick an action you want to carry out for a selected contact. Moving through the items included in your phone book is very smooth.
Search for numbers and call or text contacts on the spot
This application comes with a smart search engine that is bent on identifying the contacts you are after by looking them up by the phone number included in the database.
An important mention is that the query displays all the entries that contain a certain digit or number sequence you input, not only those beginning with that figure.
When you will need to place a phone call or send an SMS to any of your friends, look for the appropriate button in the main menu, as Contacts Plus supports both functions.
Manage contacts with detailed stats
The utility can provide a series of statistics that apply strictly to the contacts and refer to the number of duplicate entries, the listing of those with an email address or postal code associated.
It is also possible to see how many entries are included in each account stored on your phone and you can check out the list of contacts arranged by year of birth, if this information was specified when adding them.

Bottom Line
Design / UI6
The looks of this app are quite disappointing, as they are rather common and dull. The very good organization of the layout and smooth navigation throughout are the main assets that save it some points. |
Function8
Very easy to use and with a set of useful extras, Contacts Plus offers a quick way to finding, calling and texting contacts. The only major flaw is the lack of support for searching by name. |
Security10
Very discreet insofar as the user personal data is concerned, this application only looks inside the contacts and phone dialer areas, for obvious reasons. |
Battery9
The power consumption is minimal all the time this app is running, so the battery usage remains at very low levels. |
Price9
Overall, this utility can be a very good addition to anyone's collection of apps as it provides an effortless way of finding and getting in touch with people included in the phone book. |
Compatibility9
Almost any Windows Phone user will be able to run this app onto their handset as it only needs version 7.5 or higher of the operating system to be installed. |
