One of the coolest new features introduced in Leopard’s version of Mail is the ability to automatically add contact details to Address Book. Just hover the mouse pointer over something that looks like an address or phone number, and a box magically appears that lets you import the info, with the details brilliantly ending up in the right places. Well, good news: Now, an app has brought the feature to the iPhone.
Copy2Contact comes in two versions: an ad-supported freebie that developer Anagram Technologies says will seamlessly import details from things like emails, search engines and text messages, and a $5 pro version which nukes both the free version’s limit of four contacts per week and the ads.
Apparently, Crackberry owners have had this little luxury for awhile — I wouldn’t know, because my interaction with one of the devices lasted all of three days before I got rid of it — so it surprises me that it’s only coming to the iPhone now. Better late than never, though — right?
