Description

*** PLEASE NOTE: While this app is still useful to many, it has not been updated in several years and I have no plans to update it in the near future. It works on most phones but as Android evolves some features are becoming difficult to use as intended. Specifically the menu button appears to be unsupported on some 5.1 devices and checkboxes have changed in such a way as to make them hard to check in Android 4.4.4. If anyone has an interest in taking over development of this app, please contact me at support@holyhog.com.

All in one powerful, easy to use app:

* Find duplicate contacts[1]
* Merge contacts
* Copy contacts between accounts
* Move contacts between accounts
* Delete contacts one at a time or in huge batches
* Delete all contacts from just one account (phone or synced; works with SIM contacts on some phones[2])
* Remove contacts found by search

Facebook, LinkedIn and other non-gmail users: This app may not allow you to manipulate contacts in non-gmail accounts. Download the free version of Contact Remover and try deleting a contact to see if it will work for you. Different phones work differently and I can't possibly test them all.

NOTE: Users who are reporting lost contacts may be merging or moving contacts into accounts that don't allow editing outside their own app (like Facebook, LinkedIn and perhaps Skype). Contact Remover Plus happily writes to these accounts but when the account is synced the data Contact Remover Plus wrote is deleted by the sync process. If you want to move or merge into a non-GMail account, please test it first with the Copy function, then sync and make sure the copied data is still there.

Duplicate finder can match on name (including nicknames), full or partial phone number (like without area code), and email address. You control what gets merged and what doesn't. Use this to safely remove duplicates without losing data.

Based on the popular free app, Contact Remover, the "plus" version includes power features to get your contact list really cleaned up and trimmed down:

* Automatically find duplicate contacts based on name, phone number or email [1].
* Matches nicknames and partial phone numbers when searching for duplicates.
* Quickly merge any or all duplicates found.
* Select only contacts from your phone's built in account.
* Select contacts by synced account.
* Move contacts between accounts, your phone.
* Copy contacts between accounts, your phone.
* Merge contacts with an intuitive and easy to use merge tool.
* View contact details right in the app.
* Edit contact details from within the app.
* Extraordinary help tells you all you would ever want to know about how the Android contact system works.
* On some phones you can select, copy and move contacts from your SIM card. See note [2] below.

*** Please email me if you have any problems, questions, suggestions or an interest in taking over development. As mentioned above, I am not actively developing this app and so I don't check the comments very often.

[1] - A user has reported running out of memory using the Find Duplicates function on a phone with 20,000 contacts. While the app is reasonably efficient in memory use now, it cannot currently handle a database of that size. The app has been tested with 10,000 contacts, though the exact content of the contacts and the number of duplicates can also affect memory use. Your milage may vary. This note probably applies to about 2 people on the planet who have that many contacts ;-)

[2] Access to SIM contacts is not handled uniformly on all phones. If accessing SIM contacts is important to you, please try that right away and refund if it fails. I'm working on better SIM support.

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 ★This app is very helpful in cleaning up all the duplicate entries that crop up in Contacts, especially when dealing with the Waze app. I probably have deleted several thousand contacts that came from Waze
1 ★Samsung Galaxy s5. I've used the Pro version to merge my contacts on two previous phones. The app worked fantastic... I loved it. I would have given it 5 stars but I got my Galaxy s5 and there's no menu button. I uninstalled/reinstalled and still nothing. I can't get at Merge and I have 1500 contacts I need to fix. Please fix. Thank you :)
5 ★I've always wanted to optimize my contacts and merge them into Google. I found this app to give the optimal and best solution for this problem and any other contact management issue.
5 ★I've tried A dozen approaches for android, Google, or Outlook over the last few days, nothing worked. This one does, and does it correctly. It makes a big list of what it finds (it finds ALL similar entries - I had about 130), shows you all the details, you select/unselect which you want, click go, and everything is fixed. Worth ten times the price easily.
5 ★My main issue was fixing all my duplicate entries from yahoo, google, and various other older sources like outlook and my long gone treo. It worked like a charm
4 ★Nearly 5 stars but why have the scrolled keep popping up over the tick boxes. Keeps rolling and flying up the page gggrrrr. Took time but great results
5 ★Fixes the problem of multiple contacts. Excellent app, was just what I was searching for!! Works great. Worth every penny.
2 ★Doesn't give an option to delete duplicates. I've merged a few times and although it isn't foolproof (it even days so in the app) somehow over the years it's left me with over 10,000 contacts. Ten THOUSAND. I'd rather have an option to delete rather than merge.
5 ★I had a disk crash and had to restore from a backup. There were up to eight copies per Contact. This app did and incredible job of cleaning up the duplicates. It thankfully does not repeat fields which was my biggest fear.
2 ★After loading ap I can't find the menu button so I can't merge contacts. This was the whole purpose of purchasing this product. It may be the version of android I'm running. 4.4.4. Please update program to support. Also please give an option somewhere to request help.
2 ★The app works sporadically. Sometime it works, but a few times it caused the "merged" contact vanishing. Please fix the problem.
5 ★Must exercise caution when using this app and read the instructions carefully. When used correctly, it is awesome.
