Pros and cons of iBackupContacts app for iPhone and iPad

iBackupContacts app good for

If you value your contacts and are not a fan of outlook or you dont have a lap or desktop, this enables the ability to keep your contacts safe if your iPhone decides to develop an attitude. Thank you
Ive been using this app since 2011. Works like a charm. Only today Ive been having issues with it on my iphone4 latest firmware. Send the contacts. But havent received any of them in any of the 5 emails I tried. Please if there is an issue please let me know. Thank You. Awesome app :)
Best contact backup app ever made. Thank you for this. Very reliable and never need to worry about losing a contact.
This is the easiest backup ever and google will never lose my info. Its nice to be able to search gmail for birthdays and addresses and anything else. Nice to know that if my phone is lost or stolen I still have my contact info. Thank you! The kinks must have been worked out! Try it again guys if it didnt work!
Deleted all my contacts and tested this out, it was scary to take that chance and hit delete all! But it restored all of them back in under a min ***** 5 out 5
I bought the product under the previous release. I was unhappy and wrote the author of my displeasure and explained the problems. He fixed the issues and came out with Version 1.4 in a VERY timely manor. I am very pleased with the way I was treated and the promptness of the fixes. I do not have the nerve to try a restore, but I trust that it works. Even if it didnt, I am much better off with what it has provided. Thank you.

Some bad moments

Just don t work on ios 4. App close just after the create email request. Useless and expensive !
This app backs up the name and number of one contact and only the names of the other contacts on my iPhone 3G. The rest of the contact numbers are omitted. It is a good idea but doesnt appear to work on the entire contact list.
The first 4 or 5 come out fine but the rest of my 150 contacts all I get is a name. When I look at it to send it looks fine ( the ones that give all info) when I go to email theyre all gibberish. Anyone know of a contact backup that works? This one first of all was 4.99. I have free apps tgat do more
Downloaded and crashed everytime I selected compose an email!!!!! Not very happy! I DO NOT RECOMMEND!!
After two failed attempts of pasten the list of contacts from my yahoo email, I had to forward the list to my ISP email and set that account up on my iphone so I could copy and paste the list and it finally transferred all 214 contacts!!! Good luck with this one!!
Doesnt work as marketed. Doesnt backup addresses. Would like my money back
