Groups takes contacts group management to a totally different level. You get to manage your contacts the iPhone way; A simple drag & drop gesture. As they say, "a Drag & Drop is worth a thousand operations"... or something like that!
With Groups you can:
★ View and manage contact groups from a single, easy to navigate view.
★ Send Mass / Group SMS and Email to any contact group. Mail Groups with individually set To, Cc and Bcc selections. With a few taps, easily send mass SMS or Email to your friends, family or colleagues.
★ Create, rename, delete, sort, color, hide and navigate contact groups* - all in a single view. Create contact groups are then accessible from the built-in Contacts / Phone app.
★ Drag & Drop single or multiple contacts into or out of groups.
★ Send Mass / Group Mail to only a subset of a selected Group. Simply perform a search and filter on contacts you wish to email. Group emailing was never this easy.
★ vCard attachments (as inline text and an attached file supported by all mobiles): share contact information with others easily and effectively. Supports sending all fields including photos.
★ Merge multiple contacts into a single contact in Mass Select Mode (tap-hold two fingers on contact list). Extremely easy to merge duplicate contacts.
★ Delete multiple contacts from the address book in a single go (from Mass Select Mode).
★ Dial, SMS, Email and visit URL/Map Locations of individual contacts by tapping on their name for quick dialing (i.e. use it as a mini-dialer)
★ Search through your entire contact list from a single view. You can save searches too!
★ Use the built-in smart T9 Dial Pad to make quick calls and quickly filter on matched names and numbers while you dial.
★ Smart Groups: Use built-in ready to use 'Smart Groups' or create your own to easily categorize and manage your contacts. Groups offers the most powerful and easy to use filter-creation view ever. Note: Smart Groups are filtered views of your contacts and you cannot obviously drag and drop a contact to these groups.

★ Keep your contacts and groups in sync with the built in Address Book, your Laptop or Mobile Me (Please see note below for Windows).
