Having multiple phones with multiple SIM cards in each can be a burden. The ability to link and use multiple phones would be very useful.

With that in mind I would suggest, when

  • calling a contact, let the user choose the SIM to call with, or either use
    • the last SIM the contact was called with
    • the SIM corresponding to the phone the contact is stored in
  • in a call, allow to add other contacts to the call, if supported by the phone (VoIP/VoLTE?)
  • viewing the contacts
    • display them in a list or grid, either
      • on one single page
      • in a tabination (per phone)
    • order them grouped by their respecting phones or vCard groups
  • managing contacts, allow to transfer them between phones

Grouping by vCard groups is something I have never seen anywhere before, I wonder why.

Looking forward to the first release! For a long, long time I'm hoping for such a project to arise!

Thank you for the suggestions.

  1. I am not sure if multiple SIM card is supported by Hands-Free Profile, will check it in the future.
  2. Since we are using WinRT API to make phone calls, this is not possible unless we implement a custom Bluetooth profile driver. So this feature will not be included in v1.x
  3. Can you give an example of vCard group? I don't know what it is.
  4. This is very nice, it will be added to v1.x
