Proton Contacts mobile app
Hellove!
Yesterday I used Google Contacts (and/or the default Huawei contacts) app on my Android phone.
Tomorrow, I will use the secure and lovely Proton Contacts app for Android (and possibly iOS - there are probably iOS users who would want this, too).
From this Proton Contacts app, I will also be able to do my regular calls, browse call logs, see favourite contacts and groups for contacts, and utilize a search function for it all.
Please strongly consider making this tomorrow today, Proton Team <3
Thank you!

I just need a read-only copy of my contacts in the iOS contacts app. Just like the Outlook App offers for a while now.

Yes. We're waiting since 9 (nine!) years for this! When can we expect to finally see this?

That would be great! A seperate app that can replace the native Apple Contacts app on iPhone and while you on it, make one for macOS too!

Hi there Team,
I also feel this is feature would largely support the adoption of Proton, this is my one negative note when recommending the Proton ecosystem.
Contact synchronisation is a big factor and for those people who dont have google / microsoft / apple on their phone this would be gold. Thanks -

This was needed five years ago.

Even if it's not a standalone app, I'm supportive of enhancements to the overall Contacts experience. For Proton's consideration: a "Recent interactions" feature: When I am viewing a Contact card, I'd like to see a "Recent interactions" section where recent emails associated with the Contact's email can be viewed and I can click into each email. A small but helpful enhancement.

Agreed. The sooner the better. Thank you.

I've ditched Google on my android meaning I do not manage contacts with Google anymore. For the past few years all my contacts have been stored in Proton. It would be great to have an option in android to use the "accounts" feature in settings to allow proton to sync contacts to my phone. I think this would be a large step for people who are wanting to get away from Google for contact syncing and management.

Messages and phone calls are the most important use mobile devices, yet there is no current solution other than third party synchronization Apps. The secure Proton ecosystem for mobile devices has a glaring hole in it because of the lack of Android/IOS Contacts integration. Please fix this soon. Thank you.

And also make a page for Proton contacts. I use my Google contacts every day, it's a critical work product. I can't switch without this.

A separate contacts app for mobile OSs that can integrate with the phone.

A proton contacts app that can be used by other apps on the smartphone or a sync feature. These days if you have a contact in proton you can not use the data outside of proton (for a phone call for example). And data in your devices contacts list are not accessible from proton for use (except importing). That was you have to deal with two completely separate contact lists. It is very annoying and honestly keeps me back from using Proton as a complete solution.

Please make a standalone app. I like the benefits of Google Contacts having a cloud saved contacts list but want to leave Google.

Dear Proton Team, As a committed Proton user, I value privacy and security in all my communications. However, the lack of real-time contact sync between Proton Contacts and the default Android contacts database creates friction and limits Proton’s usability as a daily driver. My goal is to be completely off Google by the end of 2025, so seamless, two-way synchronization (ideally via CardDAV) is essential for me to use Proton Contacts as my primary contact source. Please prioritize and release this feature within this year. This update would greatly improve adoption and trust in the Proton ecosystem. Thank you!

Even before Proton releases a dedicated contacts application, I would like to be able to search contacts in Proton Mail not only for names or email addresses, but also for the contents of notes.

This is the last missing puzzle stone from Proton, which enables me to quite iCloud for my entire family!

This would bring me over to being a paid subscriber. Really should be available now.

Proton, this is the biggest security and privacy hole you have. Can't believe you haven't build this yet. This should be your top priority. Please, please, please get this built.
