If you hate the new Gmail Contact web page...

Networking and broadband talkabout. Need help with that new router or setting up a network?

If you hate the new Gmail Contact web page...

Post by FlyingPenguin »

I can't stand the new contacts list in Gmail that tries to copy the look and feel of the Android contact list. I prefer the old style.

For the past several months I've just bookmarked a link to the old Contacts page, but today I discovered there's a way to toggle back to the old contacts by default since, technically, the new contacts page is still in a preview stage:

On the left side of the new contacts page, click on "More" then select "Leave the Contacts preview". Refresh and it should now always default to the old contacts even when you click on the Contacts drop down in Gmail.

Praise the Lord!

Agreed, the new version sucks. Unfortunately, I'm pretty used to it now.
