"Worked great! Synced my phone and got my boyfriends address book merged with mine... We were able to quickly delete the unwanted contacts by selecting them and deleting them all at once Great App! Great Time Saver!"

------------------------------------------

"I purchased Contactdel and it has worked very well ... I am having problems syncing my contacts with Outlook. Contactdel has been very good restoring my contacts when the sync has problems."

------------------------------------------

"Easy as pie, I downloaded ContactDel, ran the program and voila all those nasty contacts were gone. My address book was ready for my slimmed and updated contact list. Thank you!"

------------------------------------------

"So I needed a way to remove 3000 contacts from my iPhone. ContactDel is the only app that does this en masse and quickly. Other apps make you remove one single contact at a time. Better yet, once I finally decided to pay for this and used it, my contacts were wiped in seconds."

"Totally does what it says!! - After hours spent trying to sort out my duplicated contacts and the literally hundreds of unwanted contacts that went onto my phone when I synched it with my gmail. This app, together with Synch In A Blink have sorted my iphone contacts and my sanity out! Thank you!"

NOTE: only first name, last name, phone number, address, email can be restored. Contact photo, notes, homepage, instant messenger, and ring tone setting are permanently deleted.

NOTE: Because of Privacy policy changes on iOS6, you need to grant access to the addressbook for ContactDel (and any contact-related App) to work: General -> Privacy -> Contact -> Switch On for ContactDel

This app was a life saver. I accidentally duplicated all of my contacts and wanted a quick fix without having to go home. ContactDel saved the day! I deleted all contacts and then loaded them again from an email I saved. Thank you!

Some bad moments

ContactDel is the only App Ive seen on App store that delete all contacts with a Touch of a Button. Very useful and easy to do, just touch a button, no sync-ing, no connecting to computers. A great App, but if it supports "search", it will be better.
A great app, very convenient, use it I can easily manage my adddress book.
Needs work on design. The app icon isnt even 4.0 ready. Also it should have an option to back things up to mobile me. I hope to see many updates for this.

Apple doesnt play well with online contacts. Hello, Apple, theres something called the cloud--you need to get used to it. Long story short: each time I synced my iPhone, it created multiples of my contacts. In no time at all I had 3000 contacts when I used to have a few hundred. Nightmare. I fixed it and Apple recreated the mess. Repeatedly. So I needed a way to remove 3000 contacts from my iPhone. ContactDel is the only app that does this en masse and quickly. Other apps make you remove one single contact at a time. Better yet, once I finally decided to pay for this and used it, my contacts were wiped in seconds. Now I can start over but I will never let Apple have a role in managing my contacts. Theyre worse at it than Google is. Now to get a great way to store my contacts in my cloud that will sync with my iPhone.
I had thousands of duplicates and it kept stalling out. Not for someone with a lot to work through.
