i've been using photo contact pro for a good two years now. and it maybe my most recommend third party app. this new version is leaps and bounds ahead of the last. the auto profile feature has got to be the best thing it offers. they also added ring tones for sms messages....this is very cool and i've been looking for this for a long time. although i wish they would've added the same for e-mail messages. also i'd like to see video ring tones some time soon. all in all this is a very well polished program....not to mention they have the today screen plug in to really make your phone look important
give it a try...you'll love it.

Default A few more screenshots of Photo Contacts PRO 5

Hi Folks,

We are very excited about the new functionality in this new release and I hope that you will also find it useful. Automatic profiles are definitely my personal favorite new feature as I don't have to worry about silencing my phone any more in meetings - Photo Contacts PRO takes care of it automatically. My second favorite is the new Today plugin which makes speed dialing or replying to SMS messages a snap.

Here are a few more screenshots of our new Photo Contacts PRO 5.

Today Screen Plugin - place your favorite contact pictures on the today screen and call or SMS quickly. The program also shows recent caller pictures, active profile and mode of operation (automatic, temporary, manual) and enables profile switching right on the Today Screen.



Scheduled, Automatic and Temporary Phone Profiles
No need to always remember to silence the phone during a meeting - Photo Contacts PRO 5 adapts the user's phone to their schedule by automatically switching to a custom Meeting Profile during a scheduled meeting or appointment. Photo Contacts PRO allows users to create Profiles that combine Call Filtering, Ringtone, SMS and system volume settings. Profiles can be run manually, automatically (with a schedule or meeting detection) or in a timed temporary mode.



Complete privacy with Advanced Call Filtering and SMS Answering Machine
Fully integrated Call Filtering can automatically Reject unwanted callers, groups of callers and Unknown and Private numbers. Users can specify the following settings to incoming calls:
1. Reject - the call is automatically rejected and sent to voicemail (if available)
2. HangUp - the call is automatically hanged up (for complete privacy)
3. Reject+SMS - the call is rejected and a custom SMS message is automatically sent to the caller
4. Silent - the call is permitted to come through but the ring is silent
5. Vibrate - the call is permitted to come through but the phone will vibrate
6. Bypass - the call is allowed to bypass the call filter in case of a global default setting




Business and Full Screen Photo Caller ID uses large pictures and easily visible large text for caller id information



Ringtone and SMS Tone Managers enable distinctive rings and sms sounds for contacts, categories and unknown and private callers


Fast speed dialing and quick SMS including pre-defined quick messages


All the best,
Bojan
