In addition to that, it has tools for the EU-GDPR and you can group customers, manage customers birthdays and vouchers, write newsletters, import customers from VCF files and export your data into VCF or CSV files. Additionally, this app adapts the Dark Mode and has the ability to save customer images. The app shows the names of people saved in the customer database for incoming calls if you activate this in the iOS settings under "Phone" -> "Block and identify calls".
