Teen Buddy helps you organize your contact information on your iPad so that the key numbers and addresses of the people most important to you as you take on more responsibility are readily at hand at all times.
Fifteen quick exercises that can be done one at a time walk you through the kinds of information that commonly come up while attending school, driving, working and taking care of yourself.
Each exercise allows you to focus on a type of contact you regularly track in away that lets you get the most use of your iPads address book.
Imagine being able to enter your contact information and:
* add a photo of the person you are talking about so someone else can recognize them quickly
* clicking the persons e-mail address and launching directly into an e-mail pre-filled with their address
* mapping the persons home or work location and being able to get driving directions to them if you have a 3G or Wi-Fi access available
* sharing the contact information so that if the person receiving the contact has an iPad, iPhone or iPod Touch the contact card they receive by e-mail will allow them to view the persons photo, click-to-e-mail, map and get directions or re-share the information.
Click on a button in Teen Buddy and you can see the types of contact information you will mostly need to know or send to others and where you can enter this information in your Address Book.
The information you can enter is divided into three types:
* Preset-Templates: These are contact information types that have already been set-up by the Address Book and are ready to interact with your other applications. These include the defaults you see labelled Add Photo, First, Last, Company, mobile (Phone), home (Email), ringtone, homepage, and add new address.
* Add field:
* Notes:
Once you add a contact to your address book you can share that contact with other relatives or friends. You can carry it around with you in an easy to access format in your purse, briefcase or backpack and find it without having to wade through notebooks and pieces of paper. If you have Skype or another calling app, you can also make calls from public Wi-fi spots to these contacts by accessing the iPad Contacts group within the Skype group. (This is most useful for people who have a Skype number and a calling plan, which can be as low as $2.95 a month as of January 2012 for unlimited calls to Canada and the United States plus an annual fee of around $30 for the phone number). In addition, we have added some tips to help you save money if you are in the United States or a country with similar insurance or other systems.
We hope you enjoy Teen Buddy and welcome your feedback!
