Kevin’s “Utility of the Week”

Games are great, but when you have a device as complex as the iPhone you want it to do a little more than just play games. I have a very specific goal for my iPhone – use it to help streamline everything that I do on a day to day basis. For anyone joining me in this quest to make the iPhone simplify your life, I will be posting an app every week that I have deemed worthy of everyday use. This app can be a utility, a productivity app, an education app, a finance app, etc – anything that’s not a game or entertainment app. You can make suggestions for the “Utility of the Week” thread on our forum.

My pick this week is “Groups”, developed by Guided Ways Technologies (check out the review). For $2.99, you’ll receive the most perfect contact organization companion in the app store. This app has replaced the Contacts app on my dock, and is now sitting beside Phone, Mail, and Text. Congratulations Groups! You are officially the first non-native application to earn a spot on my dock.

Groups: Drag & Drop Contacts Management, Group Email, Smart

Maybe contact organizing isn’t as exciting as Pocket God, but I’m about as excited as I can get about contacts with Groups.
