Suggestion: Synchronize contact photos

Post by Ralph »

Hi Max,

Would it be possible to optionally include contact photos in synchronizations? Do the available APIs offer such a possibility?

It should not be the default (due to size) and it might be restricted to special cases (e.g. 1-way-sync only, restricted image sizes and formats, only adding not replacing, etc.) but it could nevertheless be worthwhile as more and more tools and devices go for contact images...

Kind regards,
Ralph

I Sync'd my PC EssentialPIM to my Android and actually LOST photos??!!!

What's with THAT???

I had formerly sync'd using Google and had a number of photos in my contact list.

Many of them remained, but SOME of them got deleted...

At least KEEP the ones that are there??

What was the sync direction (1-way or a 2-way)? Thanks.
Android version of EssentialPIM. Keep all your data in sync!
