Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Contact.s Back Up at 4.5 against Contacts Cleaner's 4.1. Contact.s Back Up also leads on ratings volume (1.3K vs 22) and device support (3 vs 1). Contacts Cleaner's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 74%). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Contact.s Back Up holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Contact.s Back Up has 1.3K ratings behind it against 22, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 74% of Contact.s Back Up's written reviews are positive against 100% of Contacts Cleaner's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Contact.s Back Up ships an update fortnightly, Contacts Cleaner every 3 weeks. Both last shipped on November 3, 2026.
