Most mobile handsets now have the option to include a photo alongside each one of your contacts, so when you receive a call you can automatically identify the caller. The only problem – who can be bothered taking all those pictures?
The “feX” app, which costs $2.49, analyses your Facebook profile and copies all of your friends’ profile pictures, along with their birthdays, then syncs them up with your contact book.
The app also allows you to manually change the contacts within the app, so if it makes a mistake you can quickly change it by simply assigning the photo to a new contact.
The app also works along with Exchange, MobileMe and Google Sync, so it isn’t just limited to your iPhone contact book.
