## What is Contacts Hero?

Export, back up and clean up your iPhone contacts without handing your address book to anyone.

Contacts Hero turns your contacts into the file you actually need: an Excel sheet for work, a PDF to print, a CSV for another tool, a Word table for a document, or a vCard to send to a friend. Everything is read and processed on your iPhone.


EXPORT IN THE FORMAT YOU NEED
- Excel (.xlsx), Word (.docx), CSV, PDF and vCard (.vcf)
- See the full table before you export — no surprises
- Choose exactly which columns to include; each format remembers its own setup
- Names, phones, emails, company, job title, addresses, birthdays, URLs, social profiles and more

EXPORT ONLY WHAT YOU WANT
- Filter by contact group before exporting
- Keep only contacts that have (or are missing) a phone, email or company
- The count updates live, so you always know what is in the file

BACK UP TO YOUR OWN iCLOUD
- One tap creates a vCard backup of your address book
- Backups are saved to your own iCloud Drive, in a folder you can open in the Files app
- They survive deleting the app and follow you to a new iPhone
- Full history with date, contact count and file size
- Optional reminders every 7, 14 or 30 days — and an option to stay quiet when nothing has changed

BACK UP AUTOMATICALLY
- Add the "Back Up Contacts" action to a Shortcuts automation and let it run on a schedule
- Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets show your contact count and how fresh your last backup is

RESTORE WHAT YOU LOST
- Restore missing contacts from any vCard backup
- Only the contacts that are actually missing are added back — existing ones are never duplicated

IMPORT FROM A FILE
- Import from vCard (.vcf), CSV and Excel (.xlsx)
- Columns are matched automatically — including files exported from other contact apps
- Fix any column yourself in one sheet if the guess is wrong
- Review, search and tick exactly which contacts to add

FIND DUPLICATES
- Scan for duplicates by name, phone number or email — you choose which signals to use
- Delete the extra copies, or merge them and keep every phone, email and address from both cards
- A restore point is written before every change, so one tap undoes it

SHARE IN ONE TAP
- Send contacts through Messages, Mail, Gmail, WhatsApp, AirDrop or any other app
- Or save the file straight to the Files app

PRIVACY
Your address book is read and processed on your iPhone. There is no account to create and your contacts are never uploaded to our servers. Backups go to your own iCloud Drive; files leave the app only when you share or save them yourself. Restore points never leave your device.

FREE AND PRO
Preview every format, back up on this iPhone, restore contacts, scan and delete duplicates, and export smaller lists — all free. Contacts Hero PRO removes the export limit, unlocks sharing files out of the app, imports of any size and smart duplicate merging.

Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase, and you can manage or cancel in your Apple Account settings. A lifetime purchase does not renew.

### 1/5 — I click “import” and nothing happens.

*2026-06-04*

Waste of time

**Developer response:** Hello,

Import feature is working on our side. We couldn’t reproduce the issue.

Please contact us at yusuf@onnex.co with your device model, iOS version, and app version so we can check your case.

Thanks.

### 1/5 — Absymal

*2025-12-16*

First off you have to pay before even trying the app.  Second, the app constantly asks for reviews (that’s why I’m here!). Third It doesn’t cope well with contacts that have more than one e-mail address or telephone number. Fourth, it pulls numbers that are not in the contacts list from god knows where.  Avoid and save you dime and time!

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback. Premium access supports ongoing development and maintenance. Review prompts follow Apple’s guidelines and can’t be shown excessively. Contacts are exported securely and processed locally on the device. If you have a specific issue, contact us at yusufonderder@gmail.com . We’ll be happy to help.

### 1/5 — Tricky

**Developer response:** Hello, I’m sorry to hear that you’re stuck on the subscription screen. This is not the intended behavior of the app. You can continue using the free version without subscribing by tapping the “X” or “Close” button at the top of the screen.

### 1/5 — JUNK Alert

*2025-02-21*

Every attempt to export my contacts into any file type couldn’t be opened by any software package from excel to PDF… 
Don’t waste your time or money!!!

**Developer response:** Subject: Regarding Your Feedback on Contacts Hero

Hello,

I’m sorry to hear about the issue you experienced. I want to clarify that this app is developed individually, and I’m always open to user feedback to improve the experience.

It seems that the problem might be due to a minor technical issue or a possible misunderstanding on the user’s side. Because of this, I believe that such an aggressive comment like “Junk Alert” is a bit unfair.

If you could provide more details about the issue, I’d be more than happy to help resolve it. If you made a payment, I can also assist with a refund if needed. Feel free to reach out to me anytime at yusufonderder@gmail.com .

Thank you for your understanding.

Best regards.
