Address Book by Asurion [Android]

As promised, let’s do a week full of awesome and helpful Android applications.

First off, is Address Book by Asurion. This application is just what it says it is: An address book. As much as I love Android, the contact list can use a bit of a touch up.

Address Book has a beautiful user interface (it’s blue) and gives more options than the contact list. To be specific: Social networking combination. By installing Address Book as well as the ‘MixIns’ that you want, you can sync your Google contacts with your Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Flickr and Amazon friends. I love being able to keep everything in one spot.

The Navigation is easy. You have a Dialer, History, Contacts, and Favorites button at the bottom. History will show you all calls, tweets, FB updates, and texts from all contacts in chronological order. Contacts are alphabetical. On the right of everybody’s name is a summary of which networks you have for that person. Favorites are the people you talk to the most, and is separated by social networks. Tapping on a contact’s name, you get the options to see their feeds, info and calls (see image).

I quite honestly love this application, it’s exactly what I wanted. I attempted to find a way to get MotoBlur onto this Milestone, but not so worried anymore. I would suggest anybody using Android 1.6 or higher give it a try.
