Buzz Contacts, a new app from App Savvy, aims to replace the default Contacts application on your iPhone with a faster and more organized solution.

With Buzz, you'll no longer scroll through long lists to get in touch with people. Instead, your favorite contacts are organized into groups (e.g., "Family"). Each of them are a tap away with one touch calls, messaging (SMS), email, or FaceTime. Buzz also introduces a concept from Agenda called "status taps," which provides you with the ability to send frequently used phrases like, "On my way home." or "What are you up to?" to an individual contact or any number of contacts in a group.

Besides status taps, Buzz provides two ways to interact with your favorite contacts...the traditional list view and our innovative "grid view," which makes it amazingly easy to keep your most favorite contacts a tap away. Buzz also includes a beautiful dialer, which allows you to dial by name or number.
