Oracle People2 iPhone App Drops

By Jake • June 22nd, 2010 • 58 Comments

Early last year, Friend of the ‘Lab Clayton Donley (@cdonley) introduced the Oracle People iPhone app.

That app has been wildly popular. I routinely get a couple requests a week for the download information here, by email and in various other forums.

Today, Clayton dropped People2, a new version of the app that supports iOS4 features. I mention it here because we like Clayton, his work and hacking in general; building and supporting the Oracle People app is a total side project for him.

Unfortunately, the new People2 app dropped the Connect integration in the previous version because our team hasn’t had the bandwidth to enhance the APIs Clayton was using.

Also unfortunate is the fact that our team is now 75% Android, making this app moot for us.

Anyway, People2 supports both iOS4 and 3.x versions, and there is an iPad version. On iOS4, it supports multi-tasking, erm task-switching, although I’m not sure what value that provides.

Clayton rewrote the UI using Interface Builder, and it’s looking very snazzy.

Here are some screenshots, sanitized to protect the innocent:
