Contact mover & account sync

iOS and iPadOS

Hi all,
This app might help some people. I used it years ago, so I don't know if all parts of the app are accessible now so I'm a bit reluctant to put it in the app directory. It's a very specific usecase, and I haven't got any contacts I can sync to try it out again. I opened the app briefly and it looks similar to when I used it before. The description and the link are below. I've got the app installed on my iPhone 12mini running iOS 17.6.1
"Contact Mover & Account Sync" allows you to quickly and easily sync or move contacts between any pair of iPhone or iPad contact accounts. This app can be used in a number of creative ways. For instance, you can merge your corporate Exchange contacts into your personal local address book or vice versa. Or perhaps you want to sync your Outlook contacts with iCloud. As long as you already have a pair of contact accounts setup on your iPhone/iPad, it doesn't matter if it's an Exchange, Outlook, iCloud, Google, Yahoo, Local, or CardDAV account, "Contact Mover & Account Sync" can sync and move it!

IMPORTANT: If your intent is to sync your Google contacts & groups with your iPhone/iPad, please consider using "Contacts Sync for Google Gmail" at the App Store as it can sync both your contacts and groups.

I wonder how similar or different this app is from Cardhop from Flexibits. I will have to take a look at both.

Hi Michael,
Haven't heard of Cardhop. I used this Contact Mover app years ago to move contacts around. It was so long ago now that I have a feeling I wanted to get my Outlook contacts on to my iPhone somehow? It's not here in the app directory so thought I'd post about it. Hopefully it'll help someone.
