Contact Cleanup

This is one of the best apps I have ever used!! I was given this phone by my mom and she had like 1000 contacts. I started deleting them each one by on until I got to like 300 contacts. That took me over a month. Finally, I got tired of that and I decided to do some research. I found videos on how to delete ALL. Then, I looked at how to delete several contacts at once and a whole bunch of apps popped up. I wasn't sure I believed this app soi downloaded it for a try. Then, I did the action. This is the part that surprised me. In less than a minute, I deleted those contacts I didn't need to get me down to 62!!! I am so excited about this app. Download it!!! And sorry for spelling mistakes. I am only using one finger to type this so try to read it as if it was typed properly.

I had very high hopes for this app after reading all of the positive reviews. My issue was that I had (obviously) duplicate listings after adding contacts from different sources- I.e. FB, LinkedIn, manual entry, etc. When I used this app to recognize and merge duplicate contacts, it erased many contacts completely (strangely, it seemed to target some of the people I most frequently communicate with), and for others, my texts would be labeled “Maybe: [contact name],” even after I would go into the contact and manually correct the contact. The app purports to allow you to undo and changes made, but this feature did not work either. I wrote an email to their help department (of course they do not provide any phone number) regarding my issue and distress over paying even the small amount for the full version, and received ZERO response. Thankfully I had backups of my phone on iCloud, and was able to restore my contacts. Interestingly, I had to go back several days before I purchased the product in order to get a fairly correct list of my contacts, and EVEN THEN, some contacts that I knew were in my phone prior to the use of this product did not come through. My concern is that I happened to notice this because I was actively engaged with a couple of the contacts at present. I have no idea how many others were affected or corrupted by this app. Please beware of using this product and spending $ on it.

Paid for the pro version. Still nags for a review though - gets to be very annoying. I have a total of 5 sources of contacts (wish iOS would give you option of which source you want to add new contacts like it does with calendar entries) and I’ve already asked the developer to give a “friendly” name to the Accounts within this app - such as “Gmail”, “Yahoo”, “iCloud” or otherwise - would make the move between accounts easier and faster and make the app for intuitive in the process. Otherwise, once you get used to the flow and nuances of the app, it does what you want it to do. Luckily, it even comes with a built-in backup/restore which was handy when I accidentally deleted 80 contacts when I thought it was a single contact! Hoping the developer keeps working on this app, it is good and could be great!

I don’t know what the other people here may have experienced. Perhaps the older versions had some issues. But this app works exactly as promised. I had over a thousand linkedIn contacts added to my phone book by mistake and none of them had any email or telephone numbers. According to apple, outlook and LinkedIn I had to identify and remove them manually which was an impossible task. With this program I got rid of all the contacts with no phone numbers in minutes instead of days. As a bonus I merged all the duplicates and ..... Well worth the 1.99$ spent. Thank you, thank you and thank you.

I upgraded to the iPhone 7 and somehow my contacts (only a mere 1400+) duplicated!!! I was angry that my carrier (leaving them anonymous) couldn't find a quick cure to erase what I am sure was their fault anyway!! So where did I turn - to my 'computer guru' daughter - of course. She found your app, and what was going to take me a month or more to delete one by one, I had done in a couple hours!! I love the younger generation as technology has left me in the dust!! The app provides many options as to how to eliminate the duplicates. I chose the manual way as I still had to link several contacts to get all the info on one contact. It gave me the opportunity to view them on an as needed basis. As I was deleting the duplicates I was able to delete my old contacts, so by the time I was completely finished I had less than 700 real contacts - which I consider a job well done. Sometimes smart phones are too smart for their own good! Thank goodness for your app to dumb them down a little so my generation can feel a little superior to technology!!
