Features & Capabilities

ContactSyncDuck allows users to sync public Facebook profile pictures directly to their Android contacts. This extension enables both automatic syncing at user-defined intervals and manual syncing on-demand. Photos are synced in high resolution and can be stored back to Google Contacts for ease of access.

Users must manually input the Facebook ID into the contact's IM field with a custom type "Facebook" for the syncing to work. Since Facebook removed friend list access in 2015, this method provides a reliable alternative. The app respects user security, using HTTPS connections and storing no data outside the device. For easy lookup of Facebook numeric IDs, users can utilize external services like findmyfbid.com or fb-search.com. ContactSyncDuck is independent and not affiliated with Facebook.

User Reviews

ContactSyncDuck is praised for its ability to sync high-quality Facebook profile photos with Google Contacts, providing a unique and appreciated feature for users. However, the app suffers recurring issues due to Facebook API changes that break login and syncing, leading to missing or generic photos. The setup process is manual and complex, and sometimes the app crashes or fails to sync completely. Developer support is hit-or-miss but sometimes effective. Overall, users value the app highly but are frustrated by its instability and maintenance challenges.

Pros

Keeps contact photos updated with high-resolution images after initial manual setup.
Developer is responsive and fixes issues related to Facebook API changes.
Unique functionality that syncs Facebook profile photos with Google Contacts, unmatched by other similar apps.
Once set up, the app works automatically without further intervention.
Manual linking of Facebook IDs enables reliable photo syncing for contacts.

Cons

App frequently breaks due to Facebook API changes, causing photos to disappear or become generic.
Login to Facebook often fails or the app gets stuck during sync process.
Developer support is sometimes slow or non-responsive, leading to frustration.
Manual setup process is time-consuming and cumbersome, requiring Facebook IDs to be added to contacts.
App crashes or stops syncing after a certain number of contacts, especially around names starting with certain letters.

**Edit 2 - March 20, 2024 - STILL BROKEN, no response from dev. App is useless and may be abandoned. **Edit - broken again with latest 1.5.3.1 update as of Feb 8, 2024. Status shows "sync waiting for starting" but never does. I cleared app data and crashed multiple times during initial set up screens. Pixel 8 Pro on latest feb 2024 build. Please fix.

Used this app for a long time. Noticed my photos were getting out of date and opened the app to manually sync. Met with a message to log in to Facebook. Seemed to log in without issue, but even after it says it synced successfully, the photos are still not up to date. I could see it working, the profile photos went to generic silhouettes, but then went back to old photos, not the current Facebook photos.
