No decent multi-contacts widget in ICS?

[Vance14]

I would like to have a 4x2 widget where I can scroll through my contacts, or just favorites, etc. (similar to the bookmarks widget), but I don't see anything like that in ICS stock. I could add LauncherPro Plus, which I have used on other phones, but I am trying to stay stock if I can. I have tried the one app I could find which should do this for me (Photo Contact), but it says it can only work in launchers that use "scrollable widgets" (which ICS has, but they must not be optimized for ICS).

I could create a folder with all of my individual contact widgets, but that is not as convenient as scrollable.

Has anyone found an app that will do this?

I use Android Pro Widgets which has scrollable widgets that work on the stock ICS launcher (including a contacts widget).

It's theme-able as well but you need to buy the license to use that function. If you do, there's an ICS theme available to keep your home screens conform.

I kinda expected this to be included but was also a little disappointed. Heck with the way they were advertising scrollable and resizeable widgets contact lists should be a no brainer.

Mooem, awesome, I will check that out!

wyseguy77, exactly my thinking as well.

I went ahead and bought the license key and got the ICS theme. Very nice!

Or the stock ICS option would be to make a contact widget and drag it onto another to make a quick access custom list or favorites.
