Sunshine Contacts User Reviews

Overpriced & Underwhelming

I'm interested in following Marissa Mayer and curious about her new venture, though I find it amusing that she's using Google instead of Yahoo.

In my view, the contact app isn't fundamentally broken. Paying a third-party $5 a month for minimal additional functionality seems excessively expensive and unnecessary in its current form.

Somebody finally got it right

I have been an Apple user for probably 30 years and the only piece of the entire infrastructure that I’ve been completely frustrated with is the Contacts app and functionality. I’m constantly looking for another solution. I’ve tried them all I won’t even bother to list them there’s too many, when I saw the Sunshine description it sounded very much like many others I have tried However this one is the real deal

It worked the first try I didn’t lose anything it cleaned up my contacts. It syncs perfectly with iCloud and
LinkedIn and I’m about to try to sync it with Google as well so I can get all of my contacts into a single database.

Thank you thank you thank you.

The Matrix

Over the years I have had multiple contact files uploaded into my devices causing triplicate and even quadruple contacts over time. I’ve lost details, information has merged into the wrong fields, numbers have criss crossed and it’s been incredibly unorganized and frustrating. I handle property threatening emergencies where looking someone up is critical. Sunshine saved my life and in many respects, my career. This app instantly organized my contacts and with minimal effort on my part. The best thing is, it continues to work behind the scenes to notify me of discrepancies so I can quickly correct them. Thank you, Sunshine Team, for creating an app worthwhile!

I’m going

Okay but don’t want it done I’m done with the day off I’m done with the day and I just don’t know how I’m going but if I can come get you something I’m done with that I’m not going anywhere else

Great, Intelligent Way to Solve the Contact Problem

Years of contacts, and I have so many duplicates I'm often trying to figure out which one is active and which one isn't. This app uses intelligence to solve that problem and has saved me countless hours.

Hi Tim, Thank you for the thoughtful review! We love hearing how we saved you time and made it easier to get in contact with the people that matter to you - that's our goal at Sunshine! Best, The Sunshine Team

Best contacts app

First time using an external iOS contacts app and this one impresses. Never knew I needed this great technology. Highly recommend this for anyone that wants organized, clean contacts in their phone.

Response from developer

Hello! Thank you for the kind words. We're happy to hear you love our app and your contacts are clean & organized! Best, The Sunshine Team

Well Kept Secret

Sometimes an idea comes around. That really makes sense. Having all your contacts in one place and be able to know as much information about each person is important. They have knocked it out of the park with organize contacts. Great job highly recommend it.

Hi PeteKane2012, Thanks for the review! We are so happy to hear your contacts are organized and easily accessible at all times - it's an unmatched feeling. Feel free to let the secret out! ( we don't mind ;) ) Best, The Sunshine Team

Early adopter & already impressed

Finally finally finally. Sunshine has solved what is an ankle biting problem in the modern world. Contact organization should be easy but it’s not. And no one until now has been successful in correctly merging, De-duplicating & marking obsolete contact data. There’s hope that I’ll get Xmas cards to the right addresses next year!

Hi QEDBoss, We appreciate you for being an early adopter! When we set out to solve this problem, we knew contacts were complex but it's so much more than that. We realized with functional contacts, we could improve people's lives, whether it's helping people Keep In Touch (check out our new feature!) or getting holiday cards to the right address. Best, The Sunshine Team

Too enamoured with their own branding at the expense of functionality

You open the app and there is a pretty “Sunshine Contacts” name and logo. Fine.

Then you scroll down through your contacts and the same logo stays always at the top of the screen taking up 20% of your screen real estate.

I got an email from Marissa Meyer talking about how much you have learned leading up to v2 release.

Well you haven’t learned to put basic user functionality at the forefront.… anyone so blindly in love with their own branding over and above user functionality is a no-go for me. Don’t care how good the product may be…

Hi bkeare, Thank you for your feedback! We appreciate hearing from our users so we know how to improve. If you have any additional feedback, we'd love to hear from you at feedback@sunshine.com. Thanks, The Sunshine Team

Saved my life after losing contacts while switching phones.

I recently upgraded phones and lost tons of my contacts via Apple’s data transfer process. My heart dropped when I realized what happened.
Luckily Sunshine had them saved!

Thanks to the Customer Support team!
