About Live Groups
This app allows you to place shortcuts on your homescreen for your contact groups (Friends, Family, Coworkers, etc.). Clicking the shortcut will launch a folder showing the contacts in the group. As you add contacts to your groups, or remove them, the folders will always show the contacts currently in the group.
You can choose to have contacts in the groups sorted either alphabetically or by usage, with the most frequently contacted contacts at the top.
When viewing a group, the app also provides a means for you to manage the group, adding contacts to it or removing them from it.
If in the groups list, you see multiple groups with the same name, turn on 'Show group accounts' in the settings. In all likelihood, the duplicate groups come from multiple Gmail accounts, or having the same named groups locally on your phone and also in your Gmail.
The application has been updated so all functionality is there; it no longer requires the key for advanced options.

Worked great on my Note 4, but not on my Galaxy S7. On the S7, it crashes as soon as I start the app.

Why is this not a native app??? It's awesome. It makes the groups in contacts useful

This is one of those features I can't believe isn't native to android. Don't know how anyone gets by without it. Developer is very responsive! Thanks!

It's kind of amazing to me that such a basic feature isn't built right into Android. I have hundreds of contacts, organized into many different types of groups. Being able to get to a certain group of people's full contact info with one click from a home screen is great. Only 4 stars right now because it has a slightly rough visual feel and seems to sort contact names in a haphazard way. Looking forward to updates.

Really loved this app, saves me a ton of time..the ability to group them according to family, friends, co-workers was really nice and to be able to access them each through an individual widget is a life saver. Was really easy to setup.. did have one small issue but dev was responsive and helped me out.
