There are plenty of services that allows you to sync contacts, calendars and tasks. But those services are specific to one vendor or operating system. For e.g, few months back we learnt about how to sync your chrome data between different PC’s, but one limitation here is you can only sync your chrome data between different PC’s. Fruux is a service founded by Germany based firm that aims to eliminate this limitation. It provides a very simple and elegant solution for keeping your contacts, tasks, calendars in sync between all of your devices like phones, tablets, laptops and desktops. Fruux offers a unified syncing service using the CardDav and CalDav protocol standards.
Unlike any other service, Fruux doesn’t require any app to be installed on your devices. The procedure is pretty simple than you expect. Just register with Fruux and start setting up your devices. Fruux provides walk through for iOS, OS X, Nokia, Thunderbird, Evolution and Android.
