Works on Android version 2.1 (API level 7) and up, except droid phones.

Open sourced. See http://code.google.com/p/frequentcontacts/

Removed messages part of the application because it depends of messages content providers, and they are different in every device. There is no simple way for writing an application that enhances messaging experiece without having all kinds of devices. Sorry about the troubles it might have caused you.

About us

This application was created by two developers having fun with Android. We will try to solve any problem, but remember that the application is free. We have just a Nexus one phone and the emulator, so if it doesn't work for you it would help us if you send a lot of information about your cell phone and usage pattern.

Future plans
