Stealth Contacts
Read full descriptionHide full description
Some contacts are just between you and you. StealthContacts is a secure, private contacts vault that keeps selected contacts completely separate from your system address book โ invisible to other apps, never in your call history, never in your search results. Whether it's a therapist's number, a business contact you want off your main phone, or simply someone you'd rather keep private โ StealthContacts gives you a clean, organized vault that only you can access. CALLER ID THAT WORKS* When a contact calls, their name shows on your screen โ even though they're not in your system contacts. You'll always know who's calling, without exposing their details to your phone. FACE ID & PASSCODE PROTECTION Lock your vault with Face ID, Touch ID, or a numeric or alphanumeric passcode. Configurable auto-lock ensures your vault stays closed even when you forget. PRIVATE BY DEFAULT Contacts in StealthContacts never appear in your system address book, never show up in Spotlight or other apps, and never sync anywhere you haven't chosen. They stay exactly where you put them. PRIVACY SCREEN StealthContacts hides its contents the moment you switch away โ in the app switcher, in notifications, over your shoulder. No accidental glimpses. CONTACT GROUPS* Color-coded groups keep your vault organized. Filter by group to find exactly who you're looking for. iCLOUD SYNC* Sync your vault privately across your Apple devices via iCloud โ completely separate from iCloud Contacts. Your stealth contacts never appear in your system address book on any device. FREE & PREMIUM Download free and start adding contacts right away. Upgrade to premium to unlock groups, iCloud sync, and caller ID. Premium is available as a monthly or yearly subscription, or a one-time lifetime purchase. * Requires premium Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

Stop scrolling through hundreds of contacts trying to remember who someone is. ALWAYS IN SYNC - Edit a name, number, or photo in your Contacts and it updates here the instant you save, without losing its place in your timeline.
