Drag And Call 3.2.4.0

Get in touch with your best friends in an original manner on your Windows Phone
Most users have a select group of friends or family members they call on the phone regularly and exchange messages with, so having them all at hand is a must.

If pinning over a dozen contacts onto the Start screen is not an option for you, Drag And Call is an app that will surely come in handy, as it offers plenty of features that are not easy to find on Windows Phone devices.

Practical front-end, designed for ease of use

The looks of this utility are rather common, without too many visually appealing elements inside, but still with some decent graphics. The quick dial will look as nice as the photos you assign to your contacts and the mosaic that results after filling all the empty slots can be quite fun.

The tiles are pretty well arranged around the two main buttons displayed in the middle of the screen, but the layout is not flexible and cannot be modified. A visible nuisance is the presence of some advertisement banners that keep on changing in the lower part of the screen.

Add contacts and share them on the fly

Drag And Call offers 16 spots you can use to bring the friends you call and text most often closer. In case you have them already listed in the "People" hub, things will be very easy, because you can browse to the desired entry fro the "Edit" screen and all the details (name, phone number and photo) will be automatically added to that slot.

Each individual contact can be distributed in a variety of manners, more precisely via SMS, email, QR code and "Tap and Send". The last two options wil become available only after a purchase is made.

Built-in dialer with a smart search

With Drag And Call you will be able to lookup the contacts from your collection using the intuitive feature offered by the smart dialer included in the package. Thus, all you have to do is start typing the number and all the contacts containing either the digit or corresponding letter will be displayed.

In case you want to add a fresh number to an existing entry or create a new one altogether, this is one tap away thanks to the "Save" function available inside the keypad screen.

Bottom Line
Design / UI7
 

The interface is not too appealing, nor is it flexible or customizable in any way, so only the contact pictures will bring a bit of color in the quick dialer screen. The ads are quite annoying and there is a visible delay when bringing up the main menu.

Function8
 

The basic features of this app are well enough for most users, but there are some advanced and extra options that have to be purchased to enable and increase the functionality.

Security9
 

The application is fairly safe to use, despite the fact that it requires access to some system areas because these are closely related to the app's functions.

Battery6
 

Drag And Call seems to be quite battery intensive as it has a power consumption well above moderate.

Price9
 

A most valuable tool as it sits, this application's capabilities can even be extended with a small purchase.

Compatibility8
 

Only those who own a recent device that is powered by Windows Phone 8 or higher will be able to have this utility up and running onto their handsets.
