TUAW Responds: Standalone Contacts App follow-up

The other day, I posted about a safe and simple way to add a stand-alone Contacts app to your iPhone's home screen. At that time, I joked that ModMyiFone would probably come out with a user-friendly Installer-based solution about five seconds later. Sure enough they did.

Kyle Matthews, aka poetic_folly, the co-founder of forum and news site ModMyiFone, has uploaded his one-tap fix to Installer's community sources. This solution is based on TUAW reader OJ Dorson's simplified solution, which Dorson posted in our comments. You'll find the patch in Installer's Productivity section, called Contacts | HomeScreen. It's a tiny little update. The entire solution is less than 1 KB in size.

If you'd like to show your appreciation for this little hack, post off your thank you note here and say thank you to OJ in the comments.
