Sniff: Update… Xobni is no longer. Yahoo! bought it in 2013. Existing users can keep their software, but the rest of us are out of luck.
I’m excited to announce that my friends at Xobni have made one of my favorite tools even better. Originally an amazing tool for Microsoft Outlook, now Xobni organizes your contacts and more on your smartphones and in Gmail. Here’s an update the company sent me last week:
Not only can you use Xobni with Outlook, but you can also use Xobni with your iPhone, Android or BlackBerry. Smartr Contacts by Xobni enables you to access all your contacts from any Xobni or Smartr App, when you’re on the go!
With these apps on your phone, you’ll never need to manage your address book again. Smartr Contacts pulls in all the existing contacts on your phone AND it pulls in information from your email, calendar and social networks. Each contact is not just a name on your phone, but Smartr Contacts imports photos, and recent updates from social media sites like Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn.
Most importantly, it pulls all the information for a person into one contact–you’ll no longer have six entries for the same person and all these contacts are ranked contacts by those you interact with the most. Each contact profile is complete with all the email addresses and phone numbers for that person and a history of the most recent interactions and emails, and even a list of contacts you share in common.
Lifehacker named Smartr Contacts “The Best Address Book Apps” for both iPhone and Android.
