Coverflow was “kind of cool” when it came out, but at the same time it isn’t really something we enjoy using day to day as other methods of scrolling around your music tend to be quicker. An idea has now been put forwards that suggests Coverflow should be used for contacts on the iPhone. A picture of each contact with information on their current status could be flicked through like an address book.
The benefits of a Contact Coverflow or Contactflow could be to find those people you forget the names of but remember their faces. A quick scroll through your contacts would quickly find them… although if you don’t remember their names then why would you be asking them for a picture anyway?
Although on the surface it looks like a great idea, I could soon see it becoming a bit boring like coverflow. I still think contactflow should be included in the standard software though!
