••• NEW FOR 2021: SYNC MULTIPLE GOOGLE ACCOUNTS!
••• MOST TRUSTED SYNC APP FOR 10+ YEARS!
••• #1 IN DOWNLOADS & REVIEWS FOR 10+ YEARS!

With Contacts Sync, you can quickly & easily sync your Google & iPhone contacts, giving you access to your contacts wherever you go. This app distinguishes itself with its reliability, ease of use, speed, and with a true "2-way sync" that merges changes made to both your Gmail & iPhone contacts. This is the #1 app for syncing Google and iPhone contacts both in terms of downloads & reviews.

New for 2021, the app now allows you to sync 2 Google accounts with each other, so you can share the same contacts between a personal Google account and a work Google account, for example!

Truly indispensable!

I've been using Contacts Sync for so many years I don't remember when I started. But I do remember what a mess it was before Contacts Sync to keep my Apple Contacts in sync with my Gmail account. Not to mention it was impossible to sync and use Google Contacts Groups with Apple Mail.

The other very important benefit to using a truly necessary utility is having access to the developer when a problem occurs or you fail to understand something the app is doing…or not doing. This app's developer is very transparent, and in all these years whenever I had a question he was always there for me. I just realized this weekend how important that was when I had a small issue of forgetting how to do something and emailed him late Friday evening. I expected a reply on Monday, which would have been just fine, but he replied in only a few minutes. How many developers do this? I'm guessing not many.

Whenever I get a new iPhone, this is one of the first apps I install…I couldn't live without it. I sincerely appreciate the developer's commitment to keeping it updated and providing users with one of the most useful apps in the App Store.

Awesomeness app!! and I have 2 productive requests please

Easy to use and saves lots of time. I have all my contacts in my multiple Google email accounts specially the email addresses with their names to compose emails easily and look professional. I have an important request. I have multiple Google email accounts and I'd like to set up all of them on your app to have all new contacts synced automatically at once in the background and in the Standard/Auto modes without manually signing out from an account and then signing in another. Also in the event of duplicates, would you please add a tab to show possible duplicated contacts split between different Google email accounts separately with the ability to edit the merges or create separate contacts when needed? Thx a lot…

Thank you for your review and feedback. Feel free to email me at contactssyncforiphone@gmail.com to discuss further.

Excellent App if you do not want to loose your contacts again

I had my iPhone setup to sync my contacts to iCloud and google. I had to format / reset my iPhone and download all my setting including my contacts from iCloud, but to my surprise lot of my recent contacts were missing on iCloud. They were also not synced to google. Thanks to Apple. Now I have ContactsSync App , I would never loose any contacts, it syncs all my contacts to Google and iCloud. I have bought the manual sync package, the only caveat being have to sync manually. I did not want to spend the extra money on automatic sync package for now, but manual option works well for me.

The app does serve the purpose of backing up your contacts to another service. I'm pleased to hear that it worked well for you!
