A versatile dialer and address book app that syncs with your social media accounts.

Introduction

Eyecon is a powerful dialer and address book application for Android devices. It stands out from the crowd, thanks to its ability to synchronize with social media platforms like Facebook and display the caller's photo and name during incoming calls. In addition to its caller ID functionality, Eyecon also offers a convenient and visually pleasing address book that integrates social media profiles, allowing users to stay connected in numerous ways.

Functionality and Features

One of the key features of Eyecon is its ability to display the caller's photo and name, which adds a personalized touch to every call. This feature is not only convenient, but it also enhances the user's experience by making it more visually appealing and engaging.

Eyecon also excels in managing contacts. It syncs with Facebook and other social media platforms to gather and display information about your contacts, including their photos and social media profiles. This feature creates a comprehensive, unified address book that eases communication and strengthens social connections.

Furthermore, Eyecon offers free calls and messages within the app. This feature is especially beneficial for those who communicate regularly with other Eyecon users, as it can significantly reduce their phone bill.

Performance

Eyecon is praised for its smooth performance. It is easy to use, with an intuitive interface that enhances the user's experience. The app is also reliable, with no reported issues regarding the accuracy of its caller ID or the synchronization of contact information.

Improvement Suggestions

While Eyecon is an impressive app, it could benefit from adding a feature to make free calls to any number, not just to other Eyecon users. This addition would further enhance the app's value and appeal to a wider audience.

Conclusion

Eyecon is a versatile and efficient dialer and address book app that offers a range of features designed to improve the user's experience.

Potentially dangerous permissions

  • ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION: Allows an app to access approximate location. Alternatively, you might want ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION.
  • CALL_PHONE: Allows an application to initiate a phone call without going through the Dialer user interface for the user to confirm the call.
  • CAMERA: Required to be able to access the camera device.
  • GET_ACCOUNTS: Allows access to the list of accounts in the Accounts Service.
  • PROCESS_OUTGOING_CALLS: Allows an application to see the number being dialed during an outgoing call with the option to redirect the call to a different number or abort the call altogether.
  • READ_CALL_LOG: Allows an application to read the user's call log.
  • READ_CONTACTS: Allows an application to read the user's contacts data.
  • READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE: Allows an application to read from external storage.
  • READ_PHONE_STATE: Allows read only access to phone state, including the phone number of the device, current cellular network information, the status of any ongoing calls, and a list of any PhoneAccounts registered on the device.
  • RECORD_AUDIO: Allows an application to record audio.
  • SEND_SMS: Allows an application to send SMS messages.
  • WRITE_CALL_LOG: Allows an application to write (but not read) the user's call log data.
  • WRITE_CONTACTS: Allows an application to write the user's contacts data.
  • WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE: Allows an application to write to external storage.

Other permissions

  • ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE: Allows applications to access information about networks.
  • ACCESS_WIFI_STATE: Allows applications to access information about Wi-Fi networks.
  • BLUETOOTH: Allows applications to connect to paired bluetooth devices.
  • CHANGE_NETWORK_STATE: Allows applications to change network connectivity state.
  • DISABLE_KEYGUARD: Allows applications to disable the keyguard if it is not secure.
  • GET_TASKS: This constant was deprecated in API level 21. No longer enforced.
  • INTERNET: Allows applications to open network sockets.
  • KILL_BACKGROUND_PROCESSES: Allows an application to call killBackgroundProcesses(String).
  • MODIFY_AUDIO_SETTINGS: Allows an application to modify global audio settings.
  • RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED: Allows an application to receive the ACTION_BOOT_COMPLETED that is broadcast after the system finishes booting. If you don't request this permission, you will not receive the broadcast at that time. Though holding this permission does not have any security implications, it can have a negative impact on the user experience by increasing the amount of time it takes the system to start and allowing applications to have themselves running without the user being aware of them. As such, you must explicitly declare your use of this facility to make that visible to the user.
  • REORDER_TASKS: Allows an application to change the Z-order of tasks.
  • REQUEST_IGNORE_BATTERY_OPTIMIZATIONS: Permission an application must hold in order to use ACTION_REQUEST_IGNORE_BATTERY_OPTIMIZATIONS. This is a normal permission: an app requesting it will always be granted the permission, without the user needing to approve or see it.
  • SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW: Allows an app to create windows using the type TYPE_SYSTEM_ALERT, shown on top of all other apps. Very few apps should use this permission; these windows are intended for system-level interaction with the user.
  • VIBRATE: Allows access to the vibrator.
  • WAKE_LOCK: Allows using PowerManager WakeLocks to keep processor from sleeping or screen from dimming.
