What it does

Six features.

For phone books that have grown past the point of cleaning by hand.

Group by country

The app reads each phone number, figures out the country code, and bins contacts into per-country lists. No manual tagging.

Find duplicates

Match duplicates by normalized phone number, so reformatted versions of the same number still count as a match. Keep the first, keep the most complete, merge, or delete all of them.

Four export formats

CSV, Excel, plain text, or vCard. Pick which fields to include, set how country codes are formatted, output one file or one per country.

Backup & restore

One-tap VCF backup of your full contact list. Stash it in iCloud Drive, AirDrop it, email it. Restore from any VCF when you set up a new phone.

Phone-number formatting

Strip country codes, force the international format, or add a country code to local-only numbers. Useful when prepping a file for a CRM import.

No backend

No account, no cloud, no analytics, no trackers. The app doesn't include networking code, so there's nowhere for your contacts to go.

How it works

Four steps.

Open the app, point it at your contacts, pick what you want, share or save.

Load your contacts

Tap Load My Contacts. iOS asks for permission. The app reads only, unless you specifically ask it to write back.

Organize

Contacts arrive auto-grouped by country. Toggle countries on or off, search, sort, run duplicate cleanup.

Configure the export

Pick CSV, Excel, TXT, or VCF. Choose which fields to include, how to format country codes, whether to bundle everything into one file or split per country.

Share or save

Tap Generate Export. The file builds on your phone, then drops into the iOS share sheet. AirDrop, email, save to Files. Up to you.

Why your contacts stay private

Your contacts never leave your device.

The Pluck iOS app has no server. No user accounts, no analytics SDKs, no networking code at all. Your contacts can't be sent anywhere because there's nothing in the app that could send them.

No data collected No email, no account, no telemetry. The app has no backend.
No third-party SDKs No Google Analytics, Facebook, ad networks, or crash reporters in the app.
Permissions on demand Contacts access is requested at the moment you tap Load.
Files go where you send them Save to Files, AirDrop, email. You pick the destination.

FAQ

Questions.

Where do my contacts go after I import them?
Nowhere. They sit in app memory while you're using the app, then get discarded when you close it. Exported files go wherever the iOS share sheet sends them.
Does Pluck modify my contacts?
Only if you ask. Backup & Restore can write new contacts. Clean Up can delete contacts. Both ask for confirmation before doing anything.
What does Pluck collect about me?
Nothing. No email, no analytics, no crash reports, no identifiers. The binary doesn't include networking code, so there's nothing to send.
What does Pluck cost?
$4.99 once, on the App Store. No subscription, no in-app purchases, no ads. Updates are free. Family Sharing is on, so the purchase covers up to six people in your family group.
Is there an Android version?
Not yet. iOS only for now.
Can I export my contacts and re-import them on a new phone?
Yes, that's what Backup and Restore are for. Backup writes a standard .vcf file that any contacts app can read. Restore reads it back.
How do I get in touch?
Email hello@kodefoundry.com. Same address that's wired into the app's support link.
