This is a clear marketing opportunity for the Android platform, of course since no one really governs its course, it's completely being missed. I suppose cheaper/more features/hotter phones is the way they want to go.
- nigelsampson 15y agoI'm also surprised Microsoft hasn't taken advantage of this in marketing Windows Phone since it has a capabilities model similar to Android.
- sehugg 15y agoWP7 is even more secure when it comes to contact info -- you can only access contacts from an app via UI control, and then you can only return email/phone number from one person at a time (whichever the user has selected).
- nigelsampson 15y agoMango added the ability to query contact and calendar data without the chooser UI. However it does require a declared capability in the app manifest.
