Contact management

The branded “Contacts” application from Asus has a number of key features from the standard application. We will consider them later in the article.

Add / edit contact

The menu for managing contacts in the application is on the top line. To add a contact, click the “+” icon to edit an existing contact – the pencil icon.

Let's add a contact. You will be prompted to add this either to your Google account or to your phone. It makes no difference here, because Google account is constantly synchronized with the phone. The following fields (optional) will be available: phone number, email, address (home or work), website, internet call, event (birthday, anniversary, other holiday), group the contact belongs to (friends, colleagues at work, customers).

Contact types and groups

In the app, you can create several types of contacts: regular, favorites, grouped and VIP contacts. Account groups are also divided into categories: family, employees, best, frequent.

To add a contact to a group, open the menu and click “Edit”.
