Ужасное приложение

Ужас! Невозможно создать эмоции лица!!!

Profile pics don’t stay cropped

This seems like the most basic thing ever for a contact app… if I crop it someplace it should stay, but it doesn’t… Apple fix this easy issue please

Iphone 17pro max (2026Year)

It’s difficult to export all my contacts to iCloud and Gmail, and some contacts labeled “Other” can’t be deleted.

Does it still cause multiples

I had many problems back around iPhone 5 or 6 that every couple of days I would have sometimes 3 or 4 duplicates of most of my list. I finally called support and he explained that I can just delete the app and it would stop.
I don’t even know there was an app as well as contacts. Why use both? Need without it this long why start now.

Annoying bug

Contacts has always been my default trusted app for storing contacts on my phone but recently, since adding a second business line to my phone, it has developed a bug. I will search for and edit a contact fine. Then when I search for another, it returns the name in the list view but when I click to open it the app returns the previous contact selected! 😵‍💫😬 this is extremely time consuming and irritating. Please fix it! I have thousands of contacts - I don’t want to have to copy them all across to a new app!

Scam

Made for a 4 year old and up … lol

Not sure why ios

You’d think contacts get saved without issues but this app immediately loses contacts after saving sometimes and worse if a person edits a contact immediately after saving, the info is lost or not saved. How is apple even using this as a utility app??? Android has never had an issue like this. I’ve lost about 5 important contacts now due to this. It’s time to use another app because this is terrible

Can’t merge contacts

It’s most irritating that I can’t merge duplicate contacts as even Siri say you can find a tab of merge contacts but I couldn’t. Siri can’t do this either so I’m bit lost here is there any way to do it

IpadOS27 - going backwards and loses Maps create contacts

Not sure who is minding the store but without the ability to create a contact in Maps each and every item has to be SEPARATELY copied and pasted.
SHOULD have documented that in the IpDOS27 document and tips before telling you that you cannot go back to iPadOS 26

Selecting and deleting contact suck

I tried to deleted multiple contacts using two finger approach which sucks by the way, it best to have one contact selecting by click and holding that enables options to select multiple contact and then for goddamn user experience have a delete button showing on top for easier deletion. It’s such a pain in the a that I tried multiple time deleting multiple contacts using the two finger approach and I want to deselect one contact in the middle of selection which opened the contact card and all my selection is gone. Why the hell are you making soooo damn hard to delete. Please please work on it for the sake of user experience this is frustrating. Resolve this asap. And when I search for certain suffix word and delete multiple contacts of that suffix there is no option to select multiple even the two finger approach doesn’t work. Please in the name of god have the option of long hold the contact which enables options to select multiple contacts and enables options to delete as well. Thanks

SUCKS

Apple Contacts is the WORST contacts app by far. Since 2007 it has carried over the issue where it shows the last contact you had accessed every time you open the app. It should return to the very first contact in A. FIX THIS ISSUE APPLE!!!!

Latest update is ridiculous

My contact list is switching names losing names. Terrible update.

Contacts are not working when deleting for iOS 27

Hi Apple, I’m just wanting to let you know cause I know you read reviews in the App Store. I’m trying to delete a couple old contacts that I have no use for anymore, and when I scroll down to where it says delete contact, I’ll click on it and it’ll come up delete contact. I click on it, the contact will not remove. It will not delete, so and I’m totally blind. I’m using the screen reader. You guys just updated the iOS 27, so apparently you didn’t update this app because I can’t get rid of contacts that I don’t want no more. Thank you. Check on this, please, because it won’t let you remove contacts. I can’t delete none of the old contacts. I have to go through the phone part to delete them. The app itself won’t let me delete contacts out of my contact list. Thank you.

มันน่าหงุดหงิด

แก้หน่อยเวลากดโปรไฟล์ใครซักคน พอกดออกแอป แล้วกดเข้ามาใหม่ มันชอบคาอยู่ที่หน้าโปรไฟล์คนที่เรากดล่าสุด
อยากให้มันกับมาที่หน้ารายชื่อทั้งหมด

Fine just fine but needs this

1. A group, 2. Cool wallpapers, 3. That is all

Totally Unreliable

So many bugs I cannot count them. View a contact. Then search for and select another contact. From there on out, anytime you try to view the contact you searched for, you will instead see the contact of the person you viewed immediately before the search. Apple/ It Just Works. HA!!!!

Related name auto default to “mother”

For the most part, it is a fine app. I especially love the search by entering the first initial of the name. Wish the location of the search field wasn’t moved from top to bottom though. I do find it strange and unhelpful that when I want to add a related name the auto-default is mother. I’d suggest a change to 1st option: spouse 2nd: wife/husband, and 3rd option as: son/daughter name. I find adding spouse and/or children’s names are number one reason I add a related name to a contact at all.

Yeah.

Beware contacts combining

Every once in awhile, something between my email/contacts provider and Apple goes wrong and I have to delete the contacts account and re-add so it starts working again. When I do this, some of the people with the same name are combined into one contact. Also, sometimes a contact that’s just the company name and number, is combined with someone who works at that company. I have thousands of contacts and this is a problem. This has been going on for years and I’ve been reporting it for years and Apple won’t fix it.

it sucks

whatever you might guess is intuitive or simple, it does something else, it is easier to edit and save a contact in my non-apple webmail then import the VCF than to try saving a contact correctly in this ****ing waste of time app
