Last update:
Contact photos are now everywhere — in the date list, detail views, and every widget. The small widget can show a full-bleed contact photo with a colour-matched background. Medium and large widgets show a circular photo next to each row. Tap any contact to open a dedicated screen with all their dates, sync controls, and per-contact settings in one place. Search is here. Start typing in the main list and it filters by contact name or date type instantly. You can now add a date to any contact in your address book, even one with no existing dates. Set or update birthdays too, right from within the app. Widgets are now individually configurable — long-press to set contact photos, birthday visibility, and (premium) a per-widget lookahead window. Detail views got a visual refresh with a prominent header and a soft color tint drawn from the contact's photo.
