### 3/5 — Can't use without syncing contacts.

*2021-04-23*

I wanted a separate app for a separate list of contacts. I do not want to sync my own 500+ contacts but the App will not let me continue without syncing.  We should have the option to turn off syncing with our contacts. Sorry, have to delete and find another App.
