Using address from addressbook

[Massimo]

Hi, it would be very useful to access the addresses from the addressbook from inside Osmand, maybe implemented as virtual group of the bookmarks or as separate category beside POIs, favourites and recent places.

The alternative would be to start Osmand from the adressbook. This does not work currently. Selecting an address from the addressbook offers Osmand as well as Google Maps, but after Osmand has started it does not show the address as search mask or some results. Is this possible currently?

Best regards,
Massimo

it would be helpful to mention the Plugin as a solution in the other discussion too.

Thank you for the Plugin. Is that going to be added to the Google Play soon?

I tried it, but it doesn't work. After installing the name is "Park-Plugin". Inside Osmand I see no option to access the addressbook.
Selecting an address from the addressbook I can choose Osmand or the Park-Plugin. Osmand still doesn't show the address after starting while the Park-Plugin is just crashing after calling.

Best regards,
Massimo

Please look into that discussion https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups=#!searchin/osmand/ContactAddressPlugin$20OSMAND$20Plugin...$20for$20ICS$20and$20android$202.3.3/osmand/8KIn24eE00k/f2nOWh5vEfUJ . The plugin was not provided by me and I don't know how to fixit.
