Export Contact Reviews

Downloaded the free version. Okay, so it would only do 100 contacts. Fine, I only needed 25. But it didn’t let me choose which ones, so I didn’t get the ones I wanted. Plus, when I opened their CSV, the “first name”s were the second parts of the their address line. There were no last names, no phone numbers, etc. Pretty much worthless. So, I spent my $1.99 to upgrade to the “pro” version, but it just did the same thing with all my contacts. There is no option NOT have it do it automatically. If you can’t assign fields, then the software is useless. It might’ve exported, but it did it all wrong. So again: worthless. I then immediately got on my phone and unsubscribed, so I’ll only waste $1.99 on this.

I had over 2000 contacts in my iPhone. I tried to sync with outlook using iTunes and lost all my contacts. When I downloaded my contacts from the cloud I ended up with multiple contacts for the same contact. I wanted to be able to export all my contacts into an XL or CSV file and then clean them up by deleting duplicates. There are two issues with ExportContact. First of all when you export in Excel it does not pick up the “Notes”that you may have for a contact. Secondly, if you down in CSV it does not line up easily so it makes it very difficult to clean up the file. Many time there are several rows for each contact.

Then I tried to use the vCard file format but that will only download the first contact. It would be great if you could download multiple contacts but for outlook that does not work. I sent an email to ExportContact developer about four days ago and have heard nothing back.

The ONLY problem I have with ExportContact is that when the contacts are exported, the contact pictures do NOT go with it. Anyways, I just spent 1 hour & 47 minutes on the phone with Apple Support trying to get my contacts off my phone and on my new MacBook Pro. At the end of the call, they couldn’t help me & advised I will need to manually add each contact missing to my computer (a little over 200). It’s my fault the contacts are all messed up to be honest. ExportContact is AMAZING!! It solved my problem and saved me a ton of time!!

I was dinking around the internet for instructions on how to do this. The best $1.99 I have ever spent on work tools. I exported 3,348 contacts into an Excel sheet and uploaded to OneDrive in just a couple of minutes. I wish I would have bought the lifetime for $4.99, but typical me the frugal one, I didn’t!

On my iPhone6 iOS 11.4.1 Export Contacts works exporting to CSV or vCard , but NOT to excel file . For excel export it crashes every time .
Emailing the exported csv works. vCard is too painful . Since I couldn’t get iCloud sync for contacts to work , I guess this was worth the two bucks because it did the job .

Nothing more valuable on your phone but your contacts. 5 bucks and I email them to myself every once in awhile.

Never know when an old client will become new again.

OK. That was seriously the easiest thing ever! Took 3 minutes, tops. All contacts downloaded to an excel spreadsheet, emailed it to myself and Voila! Also exported it to my Dropbox. I kept an old work account on my phone for over a year due to fear that I’d lose my contacts. Now I can get rid of it. This was fantastic!

About 50 contacts somehow didn’t get transfer to my new XS from iPhone 6 Plus due to default contacts groups issue. Using ExportContact I was able to export all the contacts from old phone and add them to new phone pretty quickly. Well worth the $2!

I DL’d this in bed, used it (you tap through about three screens) and emailed myself an excel file within about 30 seconds. No joke.

I needed contacts in excel to populate a stationary website’s address template in order to send out birth announcements. ExportContact just saved this 39-week-pregnant lady major stress. Thank you!!

Perfect solution.
How many people know their important contacts from memory??? How will you reach anyone when your phone is damaged???
Everybody should occasionally export their contacts in Excel format and print them. Store the list in your purse, vehicle, etc. IMHO

Successfully exported 10,213 contacts to CSV and Card

Very simple interface! Very happy with the purchase. Glad that I now have a backup separate from my phone and iCloud.

Feedback:

1) In the iOS app, when tapping to select which format, there is not enough color contrast to give me confidence I have tapped the right button. I had to bring my phone in and look carefully to make sure.
Please make the button selection a noticeable lecolor. Fluorescent green is trendy. Even for color-blind would look greater contrast than what you currently show.

2) In the CSV file, Notes for a contact is sometimes in column FR, and sometimes in column A.

This is the first app I’ve ever paid money for- so worth it!! I exported to CSV format, emailed the file to myself, and checked- all the info came over. The only issue I had was that ExportContact didn’t display in the privacy settings for contacts but that was because of my restrictions on contacts.

I wanted to export my iPhone contacts list to my Microsoft Windows laptop in a form that would allow me to review the data easily. I installed Export Contacts and ran it. The options were easy to understand and use. In a matter of moments I had emailed my contacts list in CSV form to myself. Fantastic!

By the way, there were many other ways to manage the transfer. All were simple to select. It’s difficult to imagine ExportContact not being able to get your contacts to you in a satisfactory way.

iCloud only showed a portion of my Contacts. Export Contact exported the first 100 contacts free. This gave me confidence. For under $5, I upgraded to Export Contact Pro. I was able to create a CSV or and Excel file of All Contacts. I had created some contacts on a Corporate Exchange account. Those were not showing up in my iCloud Contacts. ExportContact exported All my contacts!

Sometimes the best things are the simplest things, and Export Contact is just that! I’ve tried other export tools, and I found this one the best. The interface is simple and clear, and depending on your hardware and number of contacts, it can do its job in seconds. Since it supports VCard, CSV and Excel, it’s a solution for just about any contact need. I’m glad to have ExportContact in my toolbox!

I’ve been looking for an app to be able to easily clean up my 4,944 contacts, nothing easier than using excel. If you have a large contact file it may take some time to come back to the export button, mine took almost 15 minutes after it showed that it had exported them. I guess after it reads the records, it then formats them into the type of file you want.

So, I’m an idiot and blatantly looked over the export button. Sent an email to ask how to export and within a minute got a response with a screenshot. Just wanted to say that even though there probably isn’t much need for customer service with ExportContact, it is there!

Thanks Sebastian. Hopefully when I leave my current job I will be able to preserve all of my contacts.

My sweet husband bought me an Apple Watch of Christmas and when I synced my phone there was a crazy amount of duplicate contacts (like 20K). Took me months of research to try and figure out what was going on and how to fix this issue across all my devices so once and for all my contacts were clean. The support dialogue was fantastic, and it absolutely did what it said it would do! Thank for a fresh start!

This little app is wonderful! I was having so much trouble for a few years when my Apple devices weren’t saving (or syncing?) for various reasons and I lost so much contact info (addresses, birthdays, etc.) I found ExportContact and make it a habit to export my contacts every few weeks. I keep the most recent few export files on my desktop so I can use it to verify information. While Apple still frustrates me, at least I’ll never lose my contacts’ information!

Super fast and easy to export all contacts in your phone to a computer manageable file format. I had 2,500 contacts and this took less than a minute to export to Excel. Awesome app!
