Just what is needed to get rid of forced options provided by Google All that I wanted to not forcefully sync every contact to cloud. Shame that google forces users to save contacts on cloud with no option to store on device.

Fantastic I really hate advertising companies that sell our data to governments while trying to pretend they do no evil. This application gives us back some control and removes another slice of data from the Google big brother. This and the Iron browser instead of Chrome, together with addons like Adblock Plus, keep privacy concerned individuals like us out of the active profiling that ad companies are doing. A big thank you to the developer.

What every phone should have Which rock do the google developers live under that they think we all need to merge our google account with phone. I wish I had found it earlier. Gives me full control over how to merge/sync contacts.

My Way, Not Google's! Thanks so much for developing this app! I spent hours looking for settings so I could add a new email (POP) contact and I could not do it because Google was going to sync it with Gmail acct. I do not use Gmail mail, and it infuriated me that I pay for a new Moto Pure phone and have to fight over my contacts. This great app solved problem in 1 second! I didn't have to do anything-just added contact!

Exactly what I was looking for I cannot fathom why a "local account" isn't part of the OS. Google's grab of users' private data? One thing would be nice to have in MyLocalAccount: a read-only "calendar" for birthdays so that we get them displayed on Calendar apps. Thanks for a great app.

Non - Google Contact storage! Perfect app for local storage (on your phone, not the cloud) of your contacts. Just what I wanted and so far it worked great. What's to go wrong with the KISS approach - keep it simple stupid! Thanks to the dev.

Brilliant. Once again I can save contacts to phone/SIM instead of being forced to use Google account. Don't be fooled because this app hasn't been updated for a while. Download and take back control of your contact information.

Amazing app. It works in nexus 5. I'm wondering how come Google has not blocked this app. Used a Xperia Z1, then I got this nexus 5 as an emergency phone. And I admit, this is the first time I share the hate to Google search bar, annoying sync policies to Google account. It's a pain literally, specially if you don't want to be signed to Google account ALL the time. Had some trouble figuring out how to make it work, but after that. It solved above issues flawlessly. Cheers.

This app should be part of stock Android... Dont know why Google keeps messing my contacts. This app helps keep all your contacts offline and simplifies the restore process.

What I needed the most For those who have figured out not to share their contacts on Google, and using the newer handsets with latest Android version. It takes a bit of a effort setting up to show on your 'Contacts' app.

Lost all contacts and can't restore them I've been using this app for 5 months now and now all of a sudden my contacts have disappeared. Hoping that the file was just corrupted, I tried searching for any kind of backup within the phone's directories without any luck. I contacted support via e-mail but didn't get any answer, and this is an urgent issue that can't wait any longer, so unfortunately I'm going the route of leaving a negative review to get some fast support. Update #1: It seems that I can still see the contacts if I dial their number, but selecting them shows an error message saying "Contact doesn't exist". So they're still here, but hidden or damaged, and I need the developer's help to retrieve them. Update #2: It seems the dialer isn't showing all of the contacts, some where also appearing in my contact history, but their names get quickly erased once they scroll into view.

Highly recommend Great app. Very stable Don't have to worry anymore about Google sniffing your contacts out of your phone. It stores all your contacts locally and interacts fine with your People and Email app. Works fine with Android 4.2

Local storage of contacts achieved. This app creates a local account for contacts and you don't need to sync with Google account. I want to keep telephone numbers separately from email addresses so this app has saved me.

Does absolutely nothing on my phone. very disappointed as I am extremely uncomfortable with Google hoarding my contacts.

What I've been looking for Excellent App, I really missed the local storage for contacts on newer Android versions!

Highly recommend Only added G+ momentarily in order to rate this app. For shame that it is necessary to do that.

O My God, it really really and very truly works. Great work by you , Hats Off, Now you really let me get rid of Google which always dictated me to save my contacts where it wanted to. I am free now to save my new contacts on my device itself , though my device Moto G4 Plus itself is a slave to Google in the name of stock rom. Thanks.

Great app! Now I don't have to worry anymore about accidentally synchronizing my contacts to the almighty Google servers.

Less spying Finally something that limits how much info gets sent about us.

I installed the app but after installing there is no shortcut to open the app ? How to understand that this app is working.Still now I can't add contacts to sim even after installing this app.could anyone please help?

Why in my moto g4 plus I am not able to save in this app after adding

Thank you FJ Softwaredevelopment. One of the few companies that is pro consumer. My phone, my business Google, not yours!!

I haven't used it yet It sounds like what I need

A no brainier if you want your contact list to be private.

Best Googal contacts account duplicates contacts many times. This is effective solution to stay local with phone. Thanks. Keep it up.

This is exactly what I was looking for when I want all my contacts on the phone only and not linked to Google or any cloud service. Simple and clean and effective

Must needed for stock Android phone It's a must app for stock Android phone. It help to save contacts in phn memory.

Great!! A must! (if you want to have your contacts stored only in your phone)

Seems to work on Android 6.0.1 (Marshmallow) on a Moto phone. Remember to go to Settings, Accounts, MyLocalContact to create the "Local Contacts" account.

Excellent app No need to share contacts with google

Could you please explain this to me because I'm confused ?!

Contact birthdays do not appear anymore in the Google Calendar App on Nougat. Google contact's birthday does appear fine. Help?

Awesome! It works perfectly on Marshmallow. I can now save contacts to phone storage like it suppose to do.

I now installed this. Is there a difference to the device-contacts-list?

awesome, great solution for who wants local and not synced contacts.

Jurok Thanks for this app! It was all, I need in Googleoid 4.1.2

Choice We should have choice to store locally as part of android

Good Fj is filling a great gap. Thank you!

Behaving like Google only

Great app don't have to put it all in the cloud
