Description

CardDAV-Sync is a CardDAV client for Android to synchronize contacts. Due to its implementation as sync adapter it integrates seamlessly with the default contacts app.
(Also check out CalDAV-Sync)

Samsung S5 users: Please note that some S5 devices come with a broken contacts app that crashes when opening a contact synced by this app. Please report any crashes to Samsung.

HTC One users please check out this site first: http://dmfs.org/wiki/index.php?title=HTC_Sense_issue

Please do not install the Workaround app when you use the free version of CardDAV-Sync. It's for the paid version only

If you find a bug send me an email, please. Without detailed error description I often can't do anything especially when I can't reproduce it. It's also possible that your server has a bug that CardDAV-Sync can not (yet) tolerate or work around. If you report bugs I can fix them quickly and everyone will benefit.

Also check out the paid version CardDAV-Sync. It syncs some additional fields (like company/organization and notes). For details see my website.

Please uninstall the free version before you install the paid one (and vice versa).

Note to Yahoo!® users: Due to the many issues on Yahoo!'s servers, Yahoo! is no longer officially supported by this app.

After the installation got to "Settings" > "Accounts & Sync" and create a new Account.

Important! If your phone removes the accounts on reboot, move the App back from SD card to the phone. Some phones (if not all) can't handle sync adapters on SD Card properly.

For users who are unable to edit or create synced contacts I published an editor at the market. Just search for "Contact Editor" or see my website.

Once this app reaches version 1.0, I'll make it open source.
See http://dmfs.org/wiki/index.php?title=Open_source_status for details on the open source status.

Features:

* Sync contacts from a CardDAV-server (tested and reported to work with DAViCal, SOGo, egroupware, Zimbra, david.fx, Fruux, ownCloud ... and more. See my website for details)

* basic support for self-signed certificates

* auto-provisioning

* two-way-sync

* syncs names, phone numbers, email addresses, postal addresses, photos and birthdays (but please visit "date formats" on my website first)

* automatic address book discovery (works with most servers in default configuration)

* one-way-sync of Apple-style groups

* Support for Apple-style custom labels (X-ABLABEL)

* stores passwords encrypted

* supports efficient sync-collection request

It is still under development and some important features may be missing. Known limitations are:

* organizations, instant messengers, categories, notes and websites are *not* synced by the free version

* SOGo Contact lists are not supported yet (work is in progress)

* only "server wins" and "phone wins" (default) conflict resolution available (that is when a contact is updated on server and on phone between two syncs)

* and maybe more

Please report bugs. Feedback is very welcome.

Btw: just writing a comment like "Doesn't work on..." won't help neither you nor me to get it running on your device. Please contact me if you have problems.

known issues:

* @david.fx users: david.fx returns all links to contacts from sub-folders. Currently this leads to the situation that some contacts may appear multiple times (joined to one contact)

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

User's Reivew

5 ★What more can I say? It works without issues and it is free! Full score. I'm buying the authors other apps to support them
1 ★This app can not sync my contacts from my own owncloud server. The used URL is the one from the given link from the owncloud installation
1 ★cannot connect to GMX, in browser have no such a problem
3 ★Working fine for the new contacts but not for existing.
4 ★It works as expected but I have server on IPv6 only and it says the hostname could not be resolved. Probably because server's hostname only has AAAA record in DNS but no A record.
5 ★Works even on server that gave DAVdroid a trouble.
5 ★Works great on a Note 5.
5 ★very easy - love it!
5 ★I'm loving!
5 ★We are using this tool plus the paid caldav version from the same author successfully on several devices. Have been using this for quite some time with various Owncloud versions. Professional development, well done! Thanks
5 ★Syncs in the background and gives no trouble.
4 ★It worked for a while, but will no longer sync in any way. This is frustrating because other desktop applications will download new contacts and work as expected. It was perfect when I first started using it. I have a Nexus 6 and am hosting an ownCloud server. UPDATE: I re added my ownCloud instance, and it is working again. Not sure what went wrong, but it is working now.
