This is preventing me from using Proton as my primary contact management tool.

Appalling how such a simple and essencial feature is still not part of the Proton ecosystem. The proton team really needs to start implementing these simple features sooner rather than later. I did the whole de-google thing to Proton and I wont hesitate to de-Proton if basic QOL stuff like this isn't implemented.

Totally agreeing with comment made by "R" on December 18, 2025.

As an iPhone user and Proton Unlimited subscriber (paid 2 years upfront), I am confused that we still can't step away from Google Contacts. All we need is import our contacts to Proton and be able to sync them with the native Phone app on iOS. This request has been done 9 years ago, the planning started 7 years ago. How much longer would this feature request gonna take?

Proton contacts needs to be a fully-featured web app like Google contacts in a way that enables it to be synced with phone. Right now I have to dual enter contacts - Once in Proton and once in either Apple/Google so I can keep my life in order. It's a pain, and it can be solved by Proton enhancing their contacts management.

Come on folks, listed as planned since Jan 2019; absured. This is a basic function that needs attention sooner rather than later (especially 7 years later). As others have said, it should be considered CORE functionality and rather than adding new bells and whistles, attend to this need. iOS contacts are used extensively and being able to sync them with proton mail is needed.

I just did the switch to proton. Please implement this and at least give a feedback why it is so long

That is so sorely lacking.
I wonder what you have to plan for almost 7 years for this thing? -

Before building any app to compete with BIG TECH, the first question you should ask, "How are we going to build a frictionless data vacuum to pull over user data away from Big Tech easily?"

What almost everyone else said. What about addressing this basic need, before inventing more new stuff @proton?

This is planned for 7 years?! It is a basic basic basic function which is urgently needed - I don't need wallet, AI, Meet, Sheets etc. I just want a good webmail with calendar and contact sync on my mobile phone. Please stick to your core products, finish them, after that improve them and THEN focus on additional apps if you really must. A contact app should sync with the mobile phone and should give the possibility to have different address books and contact groups/tags to sort them. This is not just needed for workflow but it could be your niche and I am sure, more people would be willing to switch to Proton Mail entirely as soon as it is a full alternative to Google. Now, it is definitely not and when Tuta continues with its improvements, it is worth changing the service.

After all this time paying for a subscription, I still have to use Google on my Android phone because this essential feature is neglected by Proton. Proton has been saying for 6 almost 7 years that this had been planned, meanwhile they roll-out other services that are less important strategically nor do they have the Uservoice votes. Proton needs to pay attention and value its customers.

Why is still still planned since 2019? It’s one of the main things they need to do. Or even if a separate app I don’t mind. Just need a way of syncing with encryption!

PLANNED for almost six years now? This is not a nice to have, it is a mandatory functionality.
