Contact Manager for usage with finger rather than stylus - released
July 19, 2007 [Pocket PC phone] | By Edward J. R.
Let's face it, none of the Windows Mobile platforms were designed to be used with your fingers alone! The smartphone version doesn't have a touch screen and the Pocket PC version is only designed for usage with a stylus. So it's no wonder that HTC had to design their own applications for finger usage in HTC Touch. Third party developers are also working on such programs:
What's different from other contact applications:
- It can be used with fingers, no need to get your stylus. Finding contact with your finger is really easy, it's different than other software: if you press you finger on the left or right border of the screen it will allow you to select the letter you're searching for, release the finger, it will show you the contact starting with this letter. Why does it work? Human being cannot point directly to the right letter on a small screen, however human are very precise while moving their finger. So you press the screen, see the feedback, adjust the position to the right letter... and you're done!
- It's animated: the list scroll with your finger in a natural movement, the transition between contact detail and contact list are animated.
- You can set contact as favorites, they will appear in the favorite list, perfect to get a quicklist of contacts under the finger.
- You can edit your contact picture from the software, simply tap on the contact picture.
- You can customize about everything by changing the setting.ini: color, font, background image, etc...
