Strength:

• Libre Source (Open Source). If you are not familiar with "Libre Source", it means this software has both stronger security & stronger privacy. Because its code is publicly available for review and contributions on GitLab at https://gitlab.com/sultanahamer/OpenContacts • Attractive GNU General Public License version 3. This means the software code of this extension is owned and supported by a friendly not-for-profit community. Instead of a for-profit corporation. https://gitlab.com/sultanahamer/OpenContacts/-/blob/master/LICENSE • Manage contacts • OpenContacts keeps your contacts private and secured with its independent and local database. This way, other apps such as, but not limited to, Google's app can not access your contacts. • Import or export contacts. Using vCard (VCF) format. • Import contacts from Android contacts app • Choice between automated or manual contacts export • Optionally encrypt and password protect exported contacts • Shows person name upon receiving call • Call and SMS history (log) • Export call history • Can replace the default phone (dialer) app • Search contacts • Optional call filtering • Optional block call behavior. Either reject or silence blocked call. • Group contacts • Synchronize contacts with remote DAV server • Multilingual https://crowdin.com/project/opencontacts • Available on F-Droid at https://f-droid.org/packages/opencontacts.open.com.opencontacts/ • Dark mode • Customize font size • 24 or 12 hours format

Challenge:

• Search is only through keypad • The synchronize contacts with remote DAV server feature is available. But in experimental version only. So unstable. But you could either contribe to it, or hire someone to contribute on your behalf. So that it is more stable.

Why OpenContacts?

Even though we are not having any problem sharing our mobile number with all third parties, people in our phone book might have. We should not be sharing their contact information online. So, keep your contacts safe in a different database. This OpenContacts app securely saves your contacts in its own database separate from android contacts. This way, no other app would be able to access contacts. Can be used in place of your default phone (dialer) app. It can import contacts from vCard files. So we can export Android contacts and import into this app. Maintains call log as well coz Android call log app would not be able to show name of contact. Also shows the person's name upon receiving call.
