Sensobi updates BlackBerry app, invites 500 more BGR readers to closed beta

Software

Following the fantastic response to our earlier coverage and first round of beta invitations, we’ve been keeping up with the great folks over at Sensobi and watching their app progress. To recap quickly, Sensobi is a contacts and comms management app that looks to rethink the way you approach communicate with your BlackBerry. It provides history, rankings and a host of additional functionality in an effort to break users free of the typical stale contacts support found in most mobile phones. Preliminary response to its offering has been terrific and the Sensobi team has been hard at work updating the app ever since. As such, we’re happy to report version 1.4.418 is now available. Changes include the ability to sort contacts by last communication, greatly reduced memory consumption (anemic BlackBerrys around the world just breathed a sigh of relief) and a host of additional changes and bug fixes. If you’re already in the closed beta it’s time to update your current version and let us know what you think. If you came to the party too late to get in last time, BGR has you covered. How about another 500 invites exclusively for BGR readers? Just hit the read link to get started and remember, invites are first come, first served so get in on the action first and thank us later.

Clarification: No need to post in the comment section asking for invites, folks. Just click the read link, enter your info and away you go.

    Hmmm. Maybe “Bill” is right. Myabe I’m lucky I wasn’t one of the lucky 500. My Bold is purring along like a big cat on steroids. Why mess up a good thing, right BG? Grrrr? Joe Tour.

    Even though I’m lucky to have missed that flight, it pisses me off the Mr. Bold (me) didn’t get in the beta because I got to my computer too late. I can count on one hand, ok – two, the number of bgr posters more happy with RIM than I.

    Are you listening Sensobi? Sounds like a Japanese restaurant and what with my cold, if I can’t have the download, can you at least send me some miso soup to fight this dreadful cold? Hold the green onions and please add extra seaweed.

    Very Truly Yours,

    Need invite please…

  • Chris S

    I am using it successfully but I can’t get it to integrate with Google voice? Is this something in the pipeline?
    Thanks

  • Gerald Green

    Hook me up. I want an invite.

  • JC

    @Rob Agon,

    I would like to suggest that you add the integration aspects of the native phonebook to other applications like Blackberry Messenger, Facebook, Twitter, etc. After all, nowadays we don’t contact our friends only by phone/sms/email, but we also use facebook, twitter, blackberry messenger.
    It would be great if Sensobi could resemble the features of HTC Hero where we can find out what a certain friend is up to in facebook or flickr or twitter (and other social networks).

    It insists on allowing itself for online access.

    Too little benefit for the cost of battery life and privacy.

    Mike,

    Thanks for downloading Sensobi!

    Sensobi tracks basic usage of the app – how many clicks, calls, etc – and uploads it once a day to preserve battery life.

    We safeguard your privacy (and battery!) and treat it with the upmost care that it deserves.

    We hope you’ll take another look.

    Best,
    Ajay
    CEO/ Co-Founder, Sensobi
