If you haven’t used Cobook yet, and you’re a Mac and/0r iPhone user, it’s worth taking a look at this one. The Livecard feature is also optional, so if you would prefer to only use the app for address book management and not for sharing, you can.

Instead, I had to make a duplicate, simplified contact card for myself, and set that one as “Me.” Cobook’s system is more straightforward. That’s a bit different from Addappt, which shared my “Me” card, without first letting me select the fields which I wanted to keep private. The sharing is explicit, he adds, and you control your own Livecard containing the information you want to publicize. “The only thing that needs to be synced through our servers is your Livecard,” he explains. He also confirms that the startup does not upload your address book data to its centralized servers.

Of course, this sharing process also serves as a nice viral way for Cobook to gain some traction through users’ friend networks, too.Ĭurrently, this messaging and friend-finding functionality only works via Facebook, but Cobook’s founder and CEO Kaspars Dancis says that email registration will arrive shortly. You’ll tap a button, fill out the info you want included on your own Livecard (name, company, email and phone), select the friends you want to share with, and then send them a message which they can either confirm or ignore.

After updating Cobook on iPhone (or upon first install for new users), it will prompt you to “Connect Livecards” when you launch the app. In that regard, Cobook is not much different.įor what it’s worth, at least the solution Cobook has implemented to fix the problem is relatively simple. However, the problem with many of today’s solutions is that they work best when everyone uses the same platform. For example, late last year a company called Addappt launched a similar app to Cobook, also with a heavy focus on the auto-updating functionality. Google is doing this in its own way now, but via Google+, which is not for everyone.Īnd as innovation in the address book space has stagnated among the big players, that’s left room for startups to come in and try to fix the problem. An automatically updating address book is something that our email providers should have implemented for us ages ago. It’s bizarre that in this day and age, we’re still struggling with a feature that should be so simple. We will be able to bring you even more features, and your contacts will have more information than they ever had before.Cobook, a Mac contact management app that made its way over to the iPhone back in December, is today launching version 2.0 of its service which introduces a new feature called “Livecards.” This feature does what everyone wants address books to do these days – automatically update their contacts with the most current information.

The values of both of our companies align, and joining them together helps us to expand Cobook to users outside of Apple. 'Sometimes in business, like in life, things just make sense. On the Cobook blog, Founder Kaspars Danicus writes: Together, weâll eventually provide users a seamless contact management experience experience on any device.' 'With the acquisition of Cobook, the plan is to provide our users with the same unified address book capabilities on iPhone, iPad and Mac. As we like to say: ’If youâve got an address book, youâve got an address book problem.’ FullContact has always aimed to solve this problem by providing a ridiculously smart, unified address book in the cloud,' says Bart Lorang, CEO of FullContact on their blog. 'Itâs been FullContactâs quest to solve the worldâs contact information problem. Cobook was founded in 2011, a year later receiving a â¬192,088 investment by HackFwd, acquiring a 30.03% stake in the company. The financial details of the acquisition were not announced. But for me, I nearly always have my laptop on me and the iPhone’s contact search does as good as a job as I need. I suppose if you have to do some heavy management and search on the go, you would find it useful. I also put the Cobook app on my phone for a little bit, without really using it. The program allows you to easily add new contacts and information through it’s intuitive uni-bar, and the app also plugs into social networks like LinkedIn to find pictures and other information. Cobook is a favorite app of ours as we use the Mac app fairly regularly to manage contacts. In exit news, Denver-based FullContact has acquired Riga-based Cobook, meaning the Cobook team will soon be moving to snowy, smoky Colorado. Riga’s Cobook Acquired by Denver-Based FullContact
