ContactsDuster is one of the original iPhone contacts cleanup apps, helping people dust messy address books since 2010. Redesigned in SwiftUI with a fresh Liquid Glass feel, ContactsDuster keeps contact cleanup simple: find duplicates, merge repeated people, remove empty zombie contacts, organize groups, and keep a backup ready when you need it. Why people use ContactsDuster: - Clean duplicate contacts quickly - Merge matching names, phone numbers, and email addresses - Remove empty or incomplete zombie contacts - Organize contact groups - Export contacts as vCard - Back up and restore with backup history in your iCloud account ContactsDuster works directly with your iPhone and iPad contacts. Your address book stays yours: contacts are not uploaded to us, and backup history is saved in your own iCloud account so we do not have access to it.

Do you recognize this situation? You just emptied your drink and you want to throw it in the trash because you don't litter. Usually it takes a while before you come across a garbage can. With this app this situation is a thing of the past. When you need a dustbin, select the category you need - such as garbage, plastic, glass, clothing, dog... - and then you can use the GPS to navigate to the nearest bin. Since not all garbage cans are on the map yet, we are counting on you to add them so that other users - but of course also yourself - can navigate to the nearest bin without any problems.
