MyContactBook helps you organize your contacts and stay connected with family, friends, and colleagues. Known as MyHive inside the app, it brings contact groups, messaging, and AI message drafting together in one convenient place. ORGANIZE YOUR CONTACTS Create groups for relatives, friends, work, and other communities. Use surname shortcuts to find contacts with matching last names, then select several contacts at once to add them to a group. ADD AND MANAGE CONTACTS New phone contacts are imported automatically when contact access is enabled. You can also add contacts that are not saved on your phone. CREATE MESSAGES WITH AI Use AI to help draft messages for your contacts and groups. Review and edit each draft before sending. AI message creation requires an internet connection. SHARE WITH YOUR GROUPS Send updates and invitations to your groups. Use chain forwarding to pass a message along to interested contacts, who can choose to forward it to others. CONNECT WITH MYHIVEDOCS Tap MyHiveDocs from the home screen to open the separate document management app. If it cannot be opened, the Install / Update option takes you to its App Store page.
