TouchPal is a mobile app that helps you “keep in touch with your contacts,” namely by adding social aspects to your current contact list. Although much of TouchPal’s functionality has been replicated in other systems. However, TouchPal has improved things by merging nearly all of them into one app.
TouchPal adds “availability” flags to your contact list and maintains contact information right inside the app. It also allows you to update your information and the change is propagated out to your friends’ phones. You can also create “status” messages and mark busy people to call them back automatically.
