I've built a private contacts app that I can trust. It is open source, does not collect any data, and stores contacts in encrypted form, hidden from other apps.
My mom's Telegram was hacked, and scammers exploited all her contacts. So I was shocked to realize, how many contacts I had all over the internet: on Telegram, across multiple forgotten Google accounts, in iCloud, and in any app with access to my contacts. Too many points of failure, and none of them are end-to-end encrypted. That means other people, companies, governments, and potentially hackers can see and use my data for their own purposes.
So I wanted a private and secure vault for my contacts. But it should be pretty, cross-platform, open-source, collect zero data, store contacts in encrypted form, and support all the features I need.
I wasn't fully happy with the few options that existed. So as a software developer, I decided to quickly build the perfect one as a side project over weekends. But after 7 months in, it naturally turned into a business. So that's what I do full-time now.
