Private Contact

Private Contact is an app that really steps up your contact management game. While Apple has its own basic contacts tool, it lacks some of the features you might want, like password protection. That’s where Private Contact comes in!

Why Choose Private Contact?

This app is all about keeping your contact details safe and sound. You can sort through your contacts easily and keep everything private. When you first set it up, you’ll need to create a password to secure your database. You can even make multiple databases with different passwords if you want.

Simple Setup & Security

Your databases are saved as encrypted documents, which means they’re super secure! If you ever feel the need to lock away your info, you can do that anytime. Plus, it uses AES-256 encryption for top-notch data security.

Add & Organize Your Contacts

Once everything is locked down, you can start adding your contact info! You can include all sorts of relevant details for each person and even import data from existing files or other databases.

Categorize for Easy Access

One cool feature is the ability to categorize each entry. This makes it easy to see who’s who at a glance! The category shows up next to the contact name on the left side, and you can sort them by name or category.

Custom Labels & Quick Links

You have full control over labels too! This means if you're entering specific types of data, it’s totally customizable. Plus, there are handy buttons for entries that link directly to websites or emails.

Filtering Made Easy

The filtering function works pretty well—it lets you sift through entries based on specific strings within your contact sheets. It might be basic but gets the job done!

An Upgrade from Apple Contacts

If you're looking for something better than Apple's default contacts app, Private Contact gives you more features and keeps your data safe with encryption. Just one thing: adding specific filters could make sorting through large databases even easier!
