Exactly what I man.

I really really need this functionality before Jan 20th to protect my friends

I was just about to subscribe to Proton Unlimited but then found that Android can't see or use Proton Contacts. I can't switch to Proton until Android can use Proton Contacts as its contacts app (or at the very least Proton Contacts can be synced with the phone). Seems like this is important to a lot of people.

Contacts being buried down at the bottom of the scrollbar in iOS is extremely annoying. A separate contacts app would be ideal

I hope the Proton Team will work on a contacts app soon. As many users have said, this is the missing piece for getting Proton Unlimited.

If this feature were available, I would consider subscribing to the Unlimited plan.

Having to scroll down the sidebar on the iOS app to find the details of a contact is indeed very, very cumbersome ! Having a standalone contacts app would be ideal.

Please bring this feature!

This is soooo overdue and I don't think its as technically challenging as some of the other recent applications they have rolled out. Proton.... listen to your customers and make the contacts app a reality!

Nice

Since contacts already synchronize across devices and work pretty nice in general, wouldn't it be easy to make a barebone version with already available features, just adding a dialer and possibly making it a standalone app?
I saw a synchronization with built in contacts is planned, but sharing all contacts data with Google is something the majority of Proton users might want to avoid I guess.

This is the last missing piece in the proton universe.

Re: Android Mobile Device / Protonmail / Contacts - (8/26/24)
1) I do not see any SEARCH ability to find a name in my contact list
2) I do not see any ability to sort my contacts by LAST NAME rather than first name

Both are highly needed / desired! Thanks!!
My device is an Android-based "UP Phone", by Unplugged.com - a highly secure device.

Thank you!

Don't forget to also vote for the same issue here: https://protonmail.uservoice.com/forums/284483-proton-mail/suggestions/32521357-sync-contacts-with-phone-address-book

This would be a HUGE improvement; actual Protonmail allows for storing contacts but only for emails. An actual Contacts app that can replace default apps on Android/iOS would be amazing to ditch Google Contacts.

CalDav or leaving.

Tuta (formerly Tutanota) did it.
Why Proton can't did it yet?

Please implement this in your next "change order" or "sprint cycle". Enable us to completely separate ourselves from the BigTech web. Far too long have these walled gardens kept us constrained and vulnerable to their ownership.

This is huge. Need it to replace the Google contacts app.

Dedicated IOS Contacts app would round out an already great suite of tools.
