This update improves everyday contact and Notes workflows on Mac. • Fixed window resizing during startup and editing becoming unavailable after switching sidebar views. • Added a compact Notes toolbar with a 100% text-size reset, improved spacing, and a background that adapts to light and dark appearance. • Added custom Smart View icons and alphabetical section headings, with separate controls for letter navigation. • Hide built-in Smart Views without repeated confirmation and restore them from Settings. • Improved phone number display for Spain, Argentina, and Uruguay without changing stored numbers. • Clarified Notes search labels, simplified layout names, and improved Settings alignment and the Inspector menu.
Version 1.4 makes contact cleanup and Notes work easier. • Edit supported fields directly in the main table. • Delete selected contacts with a preview and verified recovery backups. • Open Merge Studio from your selection, choose values field by field, and undo merges from encrypted on-device history. Real-contact merging is now available on iPad. • Save custom layouts and improve navigation with persistent sidebar sections, column widths, and alphabetical shortcuts. • Work with a focused Notes editor, adjustable text size, and improved large-library search. • Improved Notes preservation in vCard recovery, merge undo, long-note editing, accessibility, and localization. Real-contact cleanup requires writable records and the required Notes and recovery access. Ordinary vCard exports exclude Notes unless you explicitly include them.
Version 1.3 brings safer cleanup and faster work with large contact libraries. • Bulk Edit now covers names, organization fields, labeled phones, emails, URLs and relationships, postal fields, birthdays, groups, and Notes. • Apply literal or regular-expression transformations and review every result before saving. • Merge Studio lets you choose values field by field, combine multi-value data, choose a destination account, and undo merges from encrypted on-device history. • Performance improvements: Notes indexing, large tables, and CSV export do less repeated work and show clearer progress. • Fixed Bulk Edit retry, automatic merge previews, Merge History visibility, pane resizing, and table-column stability.
Version 1.2 adds a faster, more focused way to work with contacts on your Mac. • Read, search, and edit long contact Notes, then focus the detail panel on Notes when you need more room. • Open Recently Edited, Missing Phone, and Missing Company to find follow-up work quickly. Recently Edited reflects successful saves made by Compact Contacts. • Export any Saved View directly as a vCard bundle. Notes remain off by default and are included only when you explicitly choose them. • Reach contacts, Saved Views, groups, accounts, and safe actions from the Command Palette. • Preview CSV and vCard export scope and contact count, and review every card before vCard import. • Customize, duplicate, hide, and restore built-in Saved Views, with more contact fields and custom labels available as columns.
Version 1.1 makes larger contact cleanups more deliberate: • Preview Bulk Edit changes to organization, department, or job title before anything is applied, with clear explanations for contacts that will be skipped. • Build more useful Saved Views by combining multiple conditions with ALL or ANY matching, then preserve the columns, sorting, density, and inspector layout you prefer. • Remove confirmed same-account exact copies only after choosing the record to keep and completing the required recovery steps. Compact Contacts never merges fields, moves records between accounts, or cleans up in the background. • Clearer recovery guidance, accessibility improvements, localization refinements, and stability fixes.
