Live Groups

This app allows you to place shortcuts on your homescreen for your contact groups (Friends, Family, Coworkers, etc.). Clicking the shortcut will launch a folder showing the contacts in the group. As you add contacts to your groups, or remove them, the folders will always show the contacts currently in the group. You can choose to have contacts in the groups sorted either alphabetically or by usage, with the most frequently contacted contacts at the top.When viewing a group, the app also provides a means for you to manage the group, adding contacts to it or removing them from it.If in the groups list, you see multiple groups with the same name, turn on 'Show group accounts' in the settings. In all likelihood, the duplicate groups come from multiple Gmail accounts, or having the same named groups locally on your phone and also in your Gmail.The application has been updated so all functionality is there; it no longer requires the key for advanced options.

So far so good. It achieves what I've not been able to do any other way: add a shortcut widget on the home screen to any contact group. 👍 A nice addition would be to be able to select multiple groups at once to mass delete or hide/unhide them quicker. Additionally, things like remembering scroll position in a long list of groups when editing one of them would be good. Also to only view groups from specific accounts at a time when in the app.

Unfortunately did actual damage. I needed to keep one group and delete all others. Doing that disappeared the group name of that only remaining group. I had to recreate the group and add them all back one by one. I also found it inconvenient that the app couldn't stay if i navigated away for a min. If i could have viewed a contact's details within the app then looking away from it for a sec wouldn't have been necessary. ..but if you do, it shuts down.

Perfect! I just needed a simple app for quick and easy access to the contact groups in my phone app. No other nonsense features, no ads, no permission requests for all my other apps and data files. Wish I found this app years ago.

Froze after simply adding a group. Didn't find most of my groups. Response to Developer Reply: There was no error message - the app simply crashed. I have dozens of groups, which are effectively Google lists of contacts - the groups are visible to my other contact / address book / mailmerge apps, why not Live Groups?

Does exactly what it says on the tin. No confusion. Don't understand why any criticism could be levied against it. The app is well written and it doesn't pretend to be anything it isn't. It doesn't predict the lottery numbers for instance. It's great... thank you.

Best app required

Worked great on my Note 4, but not on my Galaxy S7. On the S7, it crashes as soon as I start the app.

Exactly what i needed - direct access to a group of google contacts. Great!

Mic. D. Aug 6, 2014     

Was tired of manually adding contacts to folders on the home screen. Thanks

Why is this not a native app??? It's awesome. It makes the groups in contacts useful

A. G. u. Jun 1, 2012     

This is one of those features I can't believe isn't native to android. Don't know how anyone gets by without it. Developer is very responsive! Thanks!

It's kind of amazing to me that such a basic feature isn't built right into Android. I have hundreds of contacts, organized into many different types of groups. Being able to get to a certain group of people's full contact info with one click from a home screen is great. Only 4 stars right now because it has a slightly rough visual feel and seems to sort contact names in a haphazard way. Looking forward to updates.

A. G. u. Feb 9, 2012     

If you love to be organized, this is the app for you! Groups your contacts exACTly the way you want them.....you must have this!

A. G. u. Jan 3, 2012     

Really loved this app, saves me a ton of time..the ability to group them according to family, friends, co-workers was really nice and to be able to access them each through an individual widget is a life saver. Was really easy to setup.. did have one small issue but dev was responsive and helped me out.

I have been looking for this for a long time
