Features
On 10 August 2010, Google released an updated look for Google Contacts.[4] The update truly integrated Google Contacts with the rest of Gmail. The new features of this update included the following:
- Keyboard shortcuts
- Last name sorting
- Custom labels
- Undo
- Automatic saving
- Structured name fields
- More prominent notes field
The older version of the Google Contacts user interface was still made available at the Google Contacts official website.
Google Contacts can be synchronized with mobile devices and operating systems (e.g., Android, Symbian, iOS, BlackBerry, Palm, Pocket PC), Windows Phone or with PC applications (e.g., Microsoft Outlook) via third party software, and Google's own Google Sync app. In addition, any system that can sync via Microsoft's ActiveSync can sync with Google Contacts.[5] There is also support for mobile devices that support the Microsoft® Exchange ActiveSync® protocol and/or the SyncML standard. There is built-in support for Google Contacts in Google's open-source mobile operating system Google Android.[6]
