Top 10 Contacts and Dialer Apps For Android Devices

If we were to ask you the primary functions of your snazzy new smart phone, you’d probably exhaust the list with social media interactions, gaming, business, blogging and other activities. Calling would probably figure somewhere towards the end of your list.

Phones these days often come with brand specific dialer UIs pre-installed. Thanks to Android, customizing and personalizing the dialer too is supremely easy. More often than not, the syncing of various accounts like Twitter, Instagram, Whatsapp, Facebook, GMail etc lead to an extensive list . This leads to the need of segregating and grouping contacts, filtering and the need for easy search options minus lags.

For these purposes we have listed the top 10 dialer apps currently available in the Android market.

1. ExDialer & Contacts

Basic functionality meets easy usage and extensive features in this application. The Ex dialer borrows heavily from other apps to create something unique. It has T9 input, easy messaging and calling gestures along with customization(s) to boot.  The original UI is neat and clean but for users who love to add a personal touch to their phone, the app offers a wide array of choices.

The app also lets you place VoIP calls using your Skype or Viber accounts as well. The app also has 30 languages integrated into it thus making it popular world wide amongst users.
