With AutoContacts you can get lots of info on your contacts.
Start by using the Tasker action "Plugin->AutoContacts" and writing a name in the "Name or Nickname" field. Then you can use any of the AutoContacts variables to call, email, sms, or anything else you want to do with the info. You could navigate to a contact's home address, or open his website on a browser. You could even create a notification when his birthday is near. It's up to you what you do with your contact's info!
These are some of the variables you get when you query your contacts:
%acname - Contact Name %acnickname - Contact Nickname %acnumber - Contact Phone Number %acnumbertype - Contact Phone Number Type (Work, Home, etc) %acemail - Contact Email Address %acemailtype - Contact Email Address Type (Home Work, etc) %acaddress - Contact Physical Address %acevent - Contact Birthday, Anniversary or other %aceventtype - Type of the event in %acevent
Total time spans can be useful to find out the total number. For instance, you could write "Anniversary was 542 days ago" %acdayssinceevent - Total Number of days since the event first happened %acmonthssinceevent - Total Number of months since the event first happened %acyearssinceevent - Total Number of years since the event first happened
Cummulative time spans can be useful if you want to write stuff like "Birthday happened 12 years, 2 months and 15 days ago". %acdayssinceeventc - Cummulative Number of days since the event first happened %acmonthssinceeventc - Cummulative Number of months since the event first happened %acyearssinceeventc - Cummulative Number of years since the event first happened
%acdaystoevent - Total Number of days to the next time this event happens %acmonthstoevent - Total Number of months to the next time this event happens %acyearstoevent - Total Number of years to the next time this event happens %acdaystoeventc - Cummulative Number of days to the next time this event happens %acmonthstoeventc - Cummulative Number of months to the next time this event happens %acyearstoeventc - Cummulative Number of years to the next time this event happens %aceventday - Day of the month this event happens %aceventmonth - Month this event happens %aceventyear - Year this event happens %aceventweekday - Day of the week this event happens %aceventweekdayname - Name of the day of the week this event happens %aceventweekdayshortname - Short Name of the day of the week this event happens

The app works perfectly fine as advertised. And do note that there is no option to edit/update any contacts.

Satisfied It does work just like the video shows, but for the life of me I cant figure out how to get it to call a specific number from a contact using auto voice. As of now, all I can get it to do is to call the primary number. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

This app is a very helpful plugin for Tasker. It makes it possible to search up any contact with their name or nickname and receive info from the contact which you can use in other tasks.

I've had this for a while because I had an idea of a task that looks up my contacts. And when I finally went to create my task, I realized that the group filter requires an ID not a name as stated?! Also, it is a pain that there is not an option to return the data in json.

Birthdays usage in Tasker Birthdays in Tasker give a mistake for 1 month - the contact has a birthday in June but all variables shows that the birthday is in May. Although the birthday list in the app shows a correct month.

The app worked for a bit but all of a sudden started having issues. I use AutoRemote to send a command to my phone from a tablet. I then try to use AutoContacts to dial the number based on contact name. It worked fine for a few days. Now I can still see the autoremote command arriving to my phone. But, if my phone is locked, the number is not dialed and nothing happens. If the phone is unlocked, it takes 5-10 mins for AutoContacts to realize that a number of needs to be dialed :( Great idea, but needs a fix.
