Free Mobile Contact Backup for U.S. Cellular smartphones

U.S. Cellular and Asurion Mobile Applications has announced the availability of My Contacts Backup for smartphones. My Contacts Backup has been protecting the valuable contact information of U.S. Cellular customers for more than two years and is offered on more than 75 different phones. U.S. Cellular and Asurion Mobile Applications have also announced a new My Contacts Backup feature that allows users to create and share groups of contacts with other U.S. Cellular customers making U.S. Cellular the first in the industry to have this feature.

U.S. Cellular customers have the ability to group friends, colleagues and family members into contact lists, which can be easily shared with others. Whenever a list is updated, changes are then pushed out to all who share that list, allowing everyone up-to-date contact information. The application is built on Asurion Mobile Applications' next-generation Mobile Solutions Platform (MSP 2.0), which provides customers with the power to easily share the user-generated content stored on their mobile phones with other U.S. Cellular customers.
