JB Workaround Cloud Contacts is a free app developed by dmfs GmbH under the Business & Productivity category. It is an app that works around a bug found in Android 4.1, also known as Jelly Bean. The bug causes accounts of paid apps to be removed when Android boots up. This app provides a workaround by pretending to provide the same account type that SmoothSync for Cloud Contacts provides. This convinces Jelly Bean to keep the account, thus solving the issue.

It is recommended to install this app under Androidas well because of a new issue that causes accounts to be removed during an app update. To enable the workaround, the app must be opened at least once from within Google Play. Please note that this app is unnecessary if you are not using SmoothSync for Cloud Contacts on Jelly Bean. Do not install this app if you do not need it, and do not give it a bad rating in that case.
