Card View and List View
BusyContacts can display your contacts in two formats — Card View and List View.
Card View
The Card View lists your contacts in a single column on the left with each card displaying a photo, name and subtitle (company, title, city or email domain).
- You can control how Names are displayed in the Card View (e.g., "Tim Cook" or "Cook Tim") in General Settings. This setting also applies to the List View.
- You can control the sort order of the Card View (Last/First, First/Last, Address Book or Tag), in View Settings.
List View
The List View displays your contacts in a table with customizable columns and sort order.
In the List View, you can:
- Show or Hide columns by control-clicking on the column header.
- Sort a column by clicking the column header. Click again to reverse sort.
- Move a column by dragging the column header.
- Resize a column by dragging the right edge of the column header.
