Your address book is full of contacts you'll never call again — old coworkers, one-time delivery drivers, that plumber from 2019. Deleting them feels risky. What if they call back and you don't know who it is? Contact Archive solves this. Archive contacts off your phone and still see their name on incoming calls. HOW IT WORKS 1. Pick the contacts you don't need anymore. 2. Archive them — they're removed from your phone but safely stored in the app. 3. When an archived number calls, their name still shows up on your screen. That's it. No account. No sign-up. Nothing leaves your device. EVERYTHING YOU NEED • Bulk archive or delete — select multiple contacts and clean up your list in seconds. • Caller ID for archived contacts — see who's calling even after you've removed them from your phone. • One-tap restore — changed your mind? Bring any contact back to your phone instantly. • Recently Deleted safety net — accidentally deleted someone? Recover them within 7 days. • iCloud backup — back up your archive to iCloud or export as a VCF file. Switch phones without losing anything. • Fast search — find any contact instantly, even across hundreds of archived entries. BUILT FOR PRIVACY Your contacts stay on your device. Period. No servers, no accounts, no analytics on your data. We can't see your contacts because we never ask for them to leave your phone. 100% FREE Every feature is completely free — archiving, restoring, caller ID, iCloud backup, and search. No paywalls, no feature gates. If you love the app, there's an optional tip jar to support development.
