Verdict

The call

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

My Contacts Backup holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: My Contacts Backup has 10K ratings behind it against 37, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 62% of My Contacts Backup's written reviews are positive against 67% of iManager App's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

My Contacts Backup ships an update every 3 months, iManager App every 6 months. The most recent releases landed on November 4, 2026 and November 1, 2026 respectively.
