Gwabbit For BlackBerry Updated To Version 1.0.63 With New “Flashback” Feature [Application]

By Mauricio

Gwabbit for BlackBerry is an application that automatically scans incoming BlackBerry emails, finds contacts, and instantly transforms them into contact records within your address book. Version 1.0.63 is now available as a free upgrade and includes a new “Flashback” feature. Here’s how it works:

• If you close an email before gwabbing the contact and adding it to your address book, no worries! gwabbit adds an item to your inbox with the contact name. Just open it and you will see the familiar gwabbit alert — just click and save as usual.
• When you save contacts, you’ll find an item in your inbox, marked with the gwabbit wabbit. This keeps you informed of the contacts you added to your address book.
• In addition, you will see a gwabbit counter at the top of the screen showing the number of unopened/unsaved contacts detected by gwabbit, similar to the counter for unopened emails or SMS messages.

I’ve used gwabbit for a while now and it has saved me a lot of work with adding new contacts to my address book. If you’re someone who is constantly getting emails from both new and old contacts (since it can also update current contacts), you may want to try this app out. There are two versions available: a free version in the BlackBerry App World and a premium version in the store for a yearly subscription of $9.99.

The difference between the free and premium versions is the free version alerts the message sender that you used gwabbit to add them to your address book, the premium version doesn’t. It’s compatible with all BlackBerry devices running OS 4.2 or higher with a free trial available so be sure to check it out!
