MyContacts 0.9.27

ChangeLog

  • removed task switcher from portrait mode (mycontacts 2): not very useful since it will always revert to landscape
  • changed css logic: it will not expand css files; if you have customized them it will still work; If you haven't you may want to remove them (see FAQ)
  • auto reject private calls: one extra mode on "monitoring calls" that will auto-reject any private calls.
