I bought the “Pro” version for $0.99. My mistake! ### 1/5 — completely worthless crap *2018-05-17* i have paid for this app at least twice and no matter what i do, it should i'll prompts me to buy the Pro version. the whole point f this is to not have to merge contacts one at a time. Sick of such apps that don't so what they advertise. steer clear of this one. ### 1/5 — Waste of time and money *2016-12-02* You had one job ### 1/5 — Buggy, useless app *2016-06-17* After discovering the limitations of the free version, purchased the pro version. Twice, because the install fails to recognize the upgrade. Each time the app fails to complete the merge and hangs my phone. Spend your money elsewhere. ### 1/5 — From good to awful *2015-06-18* This app used to be great. In the latest version, the developers have taken away the search capability so you can no longer search for a contact to dedupe, you must scroll. Also, they have misspelled the word master as mater. Useless to me. ### 1/5 — Crashes after every single merge *2014-03-04* This app does not work for me. Seems like it would work okay if it didn't crash and need to be restarted after every single time I merge duplicates. That makes it take 10 times as long. I'll probably just delete the app, rather than going through 2500 duplicates like this. ### 1/5 — Worthless *2013-06-10* Give me a "merge all" function. I don't have time to go through 381 conflicts. ### 1/5 — WIPED ALL MY CONTACTS!! *2012-08-25* The app crashes often. With one of the crashes it took ALL my contacts. Not worth it even if it were free. I want my $0.99 and all the time I have put into restoring 3,000+ contacts back. ### 1/5 — Crappy app *2012-07-10* iPhone resets and starts over. Cannot get it to work. Deleting it and using another one ### 1/5 — DeDupe *2012-06-18* No stars is most appropriate. This app just wiped out my 1700 contacts. Now I'm going to have to dig out my old phone and figure how the hell to sync back to outlook then back to my iPhone. And deal with dupes again. Extract to excel is probably my best bet ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — 5 stars *2013-03-02* Did some phone book housekeeping today and this app had exactly what I needed. ### 5/5 — Fantastic *2012-12-07* Good job thx ### 5/5 — Worked well for me *2012-09-12* No issues, app is logical and worked great. ### 5/5 — Dedupe *2012-06-08* Simply a must have app. 2 thumbs up. ### 5/5 — Very useful to keep your contacts organized! *2012-05-07* This is a great App that helps you keep your contacts clean and organized, by allowing you to easily identify and resolve conflicts, as well as add information to incomplete contacts. The App is very well designed and very intuitive to use. A must have for anyone who desires to keep contacts well organized! ### 4/5 — Looks like a solid app! *2013-07-23* I have nearly 2,000 contacts in outlook many of which are dupes. To complicate matters I have allowed Facebook and Linkedin access to update my contacts adding more duplicates and in some cases overriding my existing contact info. Dedupe has helped me greatly in repairing my contact list. Well done! Scott ### 4/5 — Works Great *2012-04-28* Would like to see the ability to pick the category ie. I have an attorney and paralegal with the same # so it shows them everytime. I would like a way to ignore both so I don't have that issue along with categories but it works great. ### 3/5 — Needs work ! *2013-11-28* This app is nice for simple one record at a time clean up . Badly needs a " merge all" function or some way of doing groups . Please work on that - developer - I would pay twice the price for a " high volume merge all " tool ### 3/5 — easy to use *2013-01-25* easy and convenient ### 2/5 — Doesn't always work *2013-06-27* When I first open the app, the system finds all the conflicts and incompletes; however when I start to ignore and merge contacts to eliminate the clutter the app doesn't always respond by doing what it says. Most often, the contact I'm attempting to consolidate remains with 2 or 3 versions not able to merge. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
