The goal of the project is to create an application for the iPhone and iPod touch. This app would eventually be compatible with the iPad as well.
Here are the features I would like included in the application:
1) Create, rename, delete, sort, color, hide and navigate contact groups.
2) Drag and Drop single or multiple contacts into groups.
3) Ability to put a single person into multiple groups.
4) The ability to send mass / group mail and texts to any entire group. Group mail would give the ability to individually set "To" "Cc" and "Bcc".
5) The ability to send mass / group mail and texts to any subset of a group.
6) Easy ability to merge multiple contacts into a single contact.
7) Remove multiple contacts from a group in Mass Select Mode.
8) Dial, Text, Email and visit URLs/Map locations of individual contacts.
9) Ability to search contacts using any parameter
10) Ability to start manually dialing a number and have the contacts that match those numbers come up.
11) Ability to sync with outlook, google, etc.
12) Ability to use my location to see who is nearby.
13) Ability to take multiple photos of each contact. In addition, there should be several contact views - (view by photo (organized by last name/group) or view by non-photo tab)
14) Include a calendar. Each contact will have an input for birthday or other special events. The calendar will inform you of these events.
15) Ability to change the color theme.
16) Ability to sort through contacts in a particular city.
17) In addition to groups, in the calendar, allow for the creation of "Events" and the ability to list contacts by events.
18) Allow for custom ringtones for each contact.
19)***Create a system that prompts you, upon opening that menu option, to call a list of people you have not recently called/emailed/contacted.
20) ***In the last feature, allow for the ability to set a prompt schedule. So initially, it may tell me to call my friend from college whom I have not spoken to in 8 months. But let's say I'm up to date on my calls/emails. This person will show up near the top of my list within 2 weeks. As a result, I'd like an option that allows you to tell the program "Prompt me to (call/email/text) this person in (1 day/1 week/1 month, etc)."
## Deliverables
I understand that this is quite a few features. To the extent that you can use publicly available code to reduce costs/time, that would be great. However, quality is more important than this. The goal should be to make the app as easy to use for the user as possible.
