Currently, Not Working Properly

As at the time of writing. This application does not allow the sending of texts to groups of recipients. Across multiple devices you can select multiple users. However, the group listing overwrites the message box making it impossible to actually type of send a message. Unfortunate.

This is a iOS bug unfortunately.

Am upgrade

I have recently downloaded this app and upgraded to the pro version; this app has a lot of potentials. I like the simplicity of this app. My only concern is the lack of customization, such as removing tabs, changing the icon, etc. Overall I highly recommend downloading this app; you won’t regret it. Big shoutout to the developer. Keep it up!

Thank you for your feedback!

Not iPad compatible

I have been a supporter of this app and developer since it was first released and have always upgraded to the Pro version.

Paid for this Pro version, but find that it does not support iPad properly (you only get the iPhone version). Disappointing. Where is the native iPad support? This app use to be a Universal app, now you have to pay again and buy a separate application to get iPad support.

Where is Contacts XL 2 for ipad?

You said in one of your responses to a reviewer who complained that the Contacts XL 2 isn’t compatible with the ipad. You replied to check out Contacts XL 2 for ipad. But that doesn’t come up in the Apps Store. It only has Contacts XL for ipad.

Also, I have complained numerous times about Contacts XL continually deletes some of my most important contacts. You kept telling me that your Contacts XL can’t delete contacts. But it is still happening. Since I have used Contacts XL for years and love the various functions I decided to pay for the upgraded new version, 2, but I want it to work on my ipad.

Also, I notice that your Contacts XL 2 for iphone is only rated 3.9 out of 5 which is awful. There aren’t many reviews showing which I don’t understand. I can’t believe that there are so few people using Contacts XL 2 and only I think 5 reviews for it? This along with the unavailable Contacts XL 2 for ipad, I am now questioning buying the app. I don’t remember other apps that make you pay twice, once for the iphone and another for the ipad. Usually developers make an app compatible with iphone and if they have it compatible with the ipad they just list it as one of the devices the app is compatible with. They don’t double-charge you.

I am very concerned where this app is heading. It started out as the best contacts app out there. Now there are so many problems and you, the developer, is double-charging. That is if the Contacts XL 2 for ipad ever shows up in the App Store.

Hello. There are now 3 versions: « ContactsXL for iPhone », « ContactsXL for iPad » and « ContactsXL for Mac ». There won’t be new versions. I hope you will keep using them, I have been working a lot on it. Bad reviews are only from people who don’t want to pay. I just work to make the best contacts app.

it's not free and not pro version as they said

it's not free and not pro version as they said

Response from developer

It is written: "The app is now FREE with an in app purchase", that's pretty clear. You cannot have a pro version for free, it does not exist anywhere.

Good app, recommended

Easier to use than Apple's default app.

Response from developer

Thank you!

Quit Charging For Every Version Update

I’ve paid for this app three times now. The absolute least you could do is offer a 9.99 version that is a permanent license with access to all updates. Last time I pay. I’m sure Apple Devs have or will have most of this functionality soon enough. 🤦🏼‍♂️🤬🔥⛈🌪⚡️

Response from developer

I understand, I have made 3 major versions in 10 years but no one will pay $9.99. Thank you and I hope I will never have to release a new major version. Each time, I did that to allow users to use the app on older iOS versions

iPad?

This version doesn’t seem to be iPad friendly.

Response from developer

There is another app for iPad « Contactsxl for iPad », did you test it?
