## Review summary

Review consensus shows Contacts+ was once a feature-rich, all-in-one app (contacts, dialer, call history, SMS, spam blocking) with loyal, years-long users. However, updates removed core functions, turning it into a basic contacts list. Reviewers describe the change as demoralizing, sometimes sabotaging the product, and many have started seeking alternatives. A few positive notes refer to past strengths like map/address integration. Overall, the major pain points are feature removals, degraded usefulness, and a loss of trust in ongoing development.

### Pros

- Historically feature-rich all-in-one app (contacts, dialer, call history, SMS, spam blocking).
- Long-standing user base with years of loyalty and usage.
- Some users valued the integration of maps/addresses into contact data.

### Cons

- Removal of core features (SMS, dialer, call history, anti-spam) in updates.
- App now functions mainly as a contacts list with little value left.
- Updates are seen as demoralizing or sabotaging the product.
- Many long-time users are switching to alternative apps.
- Loss of trust in ongoing development due to feature removals.
