Export Contact holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Export Contact has 3.7K ratings behind it against 116, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 73% of iContacts+'s written reviews are positive against 47% of Export Contact's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

iContacts+ ships an update monthly, Export Contact every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 21, 2026 and September 23, 2026 respectively.
