Using the app, you can add in more contacts to be viewed and used in the Contacts tab.

WARNING: In order for new contacts to be added using the Keypad and Contacts tabs, the SpectrumVoIP ES App must have permission to access your device's contacts. 

This allows the app to add to your Address Book section of the Contacts tab.

Note: To remove a contact that no longer exists, do so using your phone's local contacts.
