### 3/5 — Dangerous app

*2026-01-11, version 24.7.0*

The biggest and most dangerous flaw is the lack of back up. My ipad copy has no means, that i know of, of protecting your data. It does not link or otherwise to anything to give that protection.

### 2/5 — Weak

*2025-11-30, version 24.7.0*

Somehow they just changed all work emails to home. Switched some back when I brought it to their attention. Way to costly for the little features above free software out there.

### 2/5 — Muito add

*2025-05-23, version 24.7.0*

Muita propaganda

### 1/5 — Avoid Contacts+

*2025-04-03, version 24.7.0*

Avoid Contacts+ at all costs. This app, allegedly designed to “organize” and “update” your address book, has instead obliterated years’ worth of carefully built professional relationships. It indiscriminately merged contacts with similar names, corrupting entire profiles and erasing crucial distinctions between colleagues, clients, and friends. Countless phone numbers and email addresses—some irreplaceable—have simply vanished.

Even worse, it has randomly deleted data with no warning and no pattern, like a digital black hole consuming the very history I entrusted it to safeguard. The damage is irreversible, and the frustration incalculable.

To add insult to injury, their customer service has been absolutely useless. Beyond generic replies and vague promises, they’ve provided no real solutions—just delay and deflection. This app hasn’t improved my workflow; it’s wrecked it. A total disaster.

### 1/5 — Mac Version not ready

*2025-02-25, version 24.7.0*

I wanted a trial version to see it could help me manage multiple accounts including apple, google, a personal Microsoft account, and a business one.  Woudn’t let me trial because I had 1000+ contacts, so I tried out a month subscription.  Doesn’t work on Mac.  So I tried it on my Ipad.  Doesn’t load up a business Microsoft account.  So I cancelled, but now I’m stuck with a month chart.  Very disappointed.

### 3/5 — Great App, but Crashes a lot

*2024-12-30, version 24.7.0*

I love the categorisation of this app. How you can add labels to contacts and organise & search through contacts easily. Adding custom fields is a nice function as well as moving fields up and down individual contacts. 

Only reason I’m giving this 3 stars is because it crashes quite frequently. Also, it doesn’t load all the fields sometimes (whether because it needs to be connected to a WiFi or something else, it’s annoying).

### 1/5 — The price is insane

*2024-10-18, version 24.7.0*

120$ a year for contacts app?!! What you you think people do with their contacts to be willing to be ripped off 👀

### 1/5 — Erased Hundreds of Phone Numbers

*2024-10-06, version 24.7.0*

I’m bitterly disappointed in this app, especially since so many users rate it so highly. I consolidated 3 lists totaling nearly 3,000 contacts. Instead, the app simply erased hundreds of contacts either completely or leaving a name without phone numbers. If I were a beginner, I would suspect myself of incorrect settings, but I’ve been using nearly every Apple product since 1985. I lost far more than a yearly subscription with Contacts+, and now I wonder how many reviews might have been bought.

### 1/5 — Price

*2024-07-21, version 24.7.0*

These apps are more expensive than lightroom and Photoshop for mac/windows with premium versions for iPhone/iPad with a 200 GB plan. This is nonsense.

### 1/5 — Not working after 17.5.1

*2024-06-04, version 24.5.0*

App will not open.

### 1/5 — Tedious

*2024-05-24, version 24.5.0*

No bulk upload of cards :-(

### 3/5 — Plus and minus

*2024-05-22, version 24.4.1*

This app is equally thrilling and frustrating. The iOS version presents updates with LinkedIn references that cannot be verified as presented. On the web, the suggested updates are clickable and can be validated whereas on iOS, I have to manually form a URL to see if the recommend LinkedIn profile is a match. I’ve put Cardhop, contacts+, iCloud and busycontacts (no iOS version) on my laptop and find contacts+ does not keep up with changes in real time with the others. I’ve even done updates in Contacts+ iOS that do not show on contacts+ web. Contacts+ also does not support maiden names as the others do. I like that it is scrubbing my system for updates, but it needs to be easier to validate and react in realtime.

### 1/5 — 詐欺アプリ

*2024-04-18, version 24.4.0*

課金アプリです。
ダウンロードして開いたら最後、キャンセルできず7日後に課金されます。
サポートにキャンセルについて連絡をしましたが「ログインしてアカウントをクローズしろ」というだけ。そもそもアカウント持ってないのにどうやってログインすればいいのか？
とんでもない詐欺アプリです。
最近こういうの多すぎる。

### 4/5 — Great (for several years) tho needs to take feedback

*2024-03-30, version 24.3.3*

I have been using (and paying for) this app — both on iPhone and web for years — and absolutely love it. I regularly email the tech support team for suggestions on how to improve the user experience and simple features that would make it a 5-star product. Unfortunately that’s where Contacts+ comes up short. They response is always the same — a pre formatted email saying they will pass on the idea to tech team. Either the tech team doesn’t exist or never gets it. Sad. But it’s still a great product that could be improve to amazing by listening to customer feedback and suggestions.

### 1/5 — No Hebrew support

*2024-03-26, version 24.3.1*

I was a premium-paid member for a long time and waited months for support promises to fix Hebrew support.

### 4/5 — App cresh

*2024-02-18*

App working on new update24.2.2 thx

### 1/5 — App Crashes on iOS 17.3.1

*2024-02-18, version 24.2.1*

New update crashes on iOS 17.3.1. App doesn’t open and reinstalling doesn’t work either.

### 1/5 — Broken app?

*2024-02-16, version 24.2.1*

Ever since I updated the app, the app will not load and will keep crashing

### 1/5 — Does not work, don’t buy until fix

*2024-02-16, version 24.2.1*

One of the many people that re upped my subscription and now the app not working. Was this been done by design or just bad programming? I believe we deserve an answer and our money returned.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Robert

*2026-03-10, version 26.03.0*

Sucks
Not only did it not de duplicate, it added thousands of birthday reminders in my primary work calendar creating complete chaos.

### 1/5 — iPad issue

*2026-03-09, version 26.03.0*

With recent updates things are going wrong. I can no longer see the add screen. It opens but no panels nor panel names appear. Impossible.

### 1/5 — No working

*2026-02-16, version 24.7.0*

I use this free version  everyday for like 8yrs it stores all the notes and gate codes and clients details and a work description and today you have said im inactive and you closed my account I need all that information no one in support is replying to emails 
Utter disgrace should have said in app your account will be closed so gather your data

### 1/5 — Way too expensive

*2026-02-05, version 24.7.0*

Way too expensive for this app it’s over $100 for a year if it’s billed yearly, and even more if it’s billed monthly!

### 1/5 — Scam-Privacy concern

*2025-12-07, version 24.7.0*

Signed into both iCloud and google. Seems they’re stealing data because once I added two accounts it wanted me to upgrade to sync both sources. Why let me add a second one when the sync is paywalled and take my info??

### 1/5 — Relationships

*2025-11-22, version 24.7.0*

Don’t download this app because when you add relationships it deletes all your contacts and you can’t add anymore contacts. This app was a big mistake

### 1/5 — Ruined contacts

*2025-08-02, version 24.7.0*

The concept is good, but execution is awful. The last time I attempted to sync my contacts, it merged everything across my accounts but left out phone numbers and email addresses, which really messed up my contact list.

### 1/5 — Better Free Ones

*2025-06-07, version 24.7.0*

There are better free ones out there that do just as much or more, and easier to use. Others might find it valuable, but it was a waste of $$$ for me.

### 1/5 — Careful as will destroy all your contacts

*2025-05-01, version 24.7.0*

Make sure you have read only from google. This app modify your contacts and destroys them. It does literally believe the contact is a different one if have one email. It is just the words. It does delete and change names to your contacts as well

### 1/5 — Reviewed after canceling my subscription within the first week

*2025-04-19, version 24.7.0*

Not recommended for serious users – Premium version failed me I subscribed to Contacts+ Premium expecting advanced contact management. Instead, the app failed to sync my address book (over 4000 contacts), didn’t import updated data, and even replaced my current contacts with outdated ones — without warning. I tried reconnecting accounts, resetting sync settings, and even reinstalling, but nothing worked. I canceled my subscription within the first week. If you have a large or critical contact list, this app is not reliable. Save yourself the frustration.

غير مناسب للمستخدمين الجادين – النسخة المدفوعة خذلتني
نادراً أكتب تقييمات، لكن التجربة هذه تستحق المشاركة .. 

اشتركت في النسخة المدفوعة من Contacts+ على أمل أن أحصل على أدوات متقدمة لإدارة جهات الاتصال.
لكن للأسف، التطبيق فشل في مزامنة دفتر الأرقام (اللي يحتوي أكثر من 4000 جهة اتصال)، ما استورد البيانات المحدثة، بل استبدل الأرقام الحالية بنسخ قديمة بدون أي تنبيه.

جرّبت كل شيء: إعادة ربط الحسابات، إيقاف وتشغيل المزامنة، حذف التطبيق وإعادة تثبيته… ولا شي نفع.

ألغيت الاشتراك خلال أول أسبوع.

إذا كان عندك دفتر أرقام كبير أو مهم، ما أنصحك بهذا التطبيق. وفر وقتك وأعصابك.

### 5/5 — 10/10

*2025-10-02, version 24.7.0*

I love that I can setup Zapier so that I can scan biz cards from events and automatically import to Mailchimp

### 5/5 — My favorite contact management solution

*2023-03-22, version 22.12.1*

One of the best contact management solutions out there, especially given how well the Gmail plug-in works.

### 5/5 — Best

*2022-10-01, version 22.09.1*

The best address book going. Lots of room for anything you might want to add to anyones file.

### 5/5 — Love this but

*2022-04-28, version 22.04.0*

Love the app but wishing you kept the auto save from Apple.  Why did you change?

### 5/5 — Where do I start?

*2021-10-28, version 21.05.01*

Not happy with this app. You can sync from your Google contacts, but you can’t sync from the app back to your Google contacts and, there is no File As here. It’s making me rethink this app because it’s making a ton more work for us. SMH

### 5/5 — Accurate!

*2021-08-04, version 21.05.01*

I’ve been using FullContact now for a couple of years. Transcription by a real person is way more accurate than OCR card scanners, especially when people seem to insist on using light print on dark color cards with font so small you can hardly see it with a magnifying glass. Adding tags to contacts is very helpful, I can search by tag to find contacts that I met at the same business meeting or are in the same kind of work.

### 5/5 — Gracias

*2021-04-30, version 21.03.0*

Es una aplicación que complementa extraordinariamente los contactos, muchas gracias por ofrecérnosla

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2021-02-23*

Application de contact bien plus claire et facile que celle par défaut. Support très rapide et efficace.

### 5/5 — 18 Months Contacts+ experience

*2020-04-03*

I use the iPhone app, browser interface, and MAC app to maintain a list of about 500 contacts all in an association. I use several custom Field names and the google sheets integration. 

This app excelled at maintaining the list of contact separate from my Phone’s native list. I don’t want the two lists to mix so this is perfect. I also use it for my personal contacts in two separate accounts. 

The only time I had any issue support was very quick to respond and tipped me off to a potential cause.  They were right and I was able to correct the problem.

**Developer response:** Thanks!
