Add the contacts icon on the bottom navigation bar.

The new version removed the contacts icon for the search icon but when I search I don't always get the contact I am looking for even if it's in my contacts. Then clicking on the contacts it sends me to the list where I can not search anymore, I have to scroll, the previous version was much more intuitive

    I hate that it is now takes 2 steps to access contacts. We need a more easy access directly from the home screen or combined with the other contacts on the phone

    As separate the people/contacts out as a separate app. Having it hidden away in the search is annoying and management of contacts deserves its own dedicated app. seperating mail/calendar/people would also allow development/new features of the individual apps to move faster

    gostaria que voces colocasse a opção sair, porque se eu perder o meu celular ninguém vai acessar meu email

    I can't just sync my mobile contact info with my work email unless I let Outlook remove my google accounts and pervliages .I should be able to send a email from my phone contacts with out having to copy and paste. and a simple sync button in general settings would do this for each account added to the same app.

    allow Outlook for Android to synch contacts as old Win8 mobile app could.
    Unless I'm missing the obvious - the only way to see contacts is to use a separate Google App!

    so I can open it up and see the email address and any other information I have put along side it.

    no need to write the email addresses... just pick from contact list containing email...

  • Steve Kleineman commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

    Enter direct access to contacts again. Icon. General searching makes it difficult to find the contact you are looking for.

    contacts are difficult to search.
    I know my contacts as business names. the email address often does not have any of the business name in it hence when I put a clients business name in the TO box, it does not bring it up. Even though I have saved the business name in the address book

    Now the search function searches only in active folders.
    It should work in the trash folder too.
