Map For Contacts App Reviews

Was Useful

Was very Nice and useful in the past but doesnt really work with IOS 10

Didnt work

Just took my contacts and nothing showed up. Not even a single pin even when I have many correct addresses.

Current version doesnt wok

This current version doesnt work on an iPhone 5. The App seemed to import my 2,000 contacts correctly and display them in list view. It did not display any of them in the map view. I will be removing this App today.

Complete Utter Crap!

You wait forever for it to load you contacts only to have none show up on the map. Make any changes to the filters and it has to go through the entire process again. Get it right, or get it off the App Store.

Useful

Interesting use of map. A photo filter would be helpful (contacts with photo). Also your website link is not working from Apple iphone Apps app. Might be good to default zoom level to area of selected items.

Very good - awesome

This bar worked well for me for a several of years, very handy. I have over two thousand contacts. Not sure what the complaints are about.

Update iOS 10 request

If you click on the pin, you cant see the name of the contact. Please update.

Neat

Couple glitches for contacts not entered correctly but great concept.

Very very good!

This is better than I thought, plenty of features with the ability to customize many settings. Google wouldnt tell me how far I was from friends in other countries but this app does! Very useful and no problems whatsoever. Five stars!

Good for 10 contacts

I have over 2200 contacts on my phone. It takes FOREVER to propagate my contacts. This is a good app if you have no friends. (Okay, 10 friends...)

Better than expected!!

Only takes about 4 seconds to go through my 1400 contacts on the iPhone 4s. Takes a while the first time through but after that its super quick. I wish someone would come out with this app for the Mac! Thanks got the great, simple app!

Good value for the price - Four Stars

I have been looking for the ability to map all of my contacts in an area so that when I travel to a region for business I can see the location of all my customers and arrange the trip accordingly. This application solves the need that I have had for a long time. Plus points - The application successfully takes the contacts from the address book and accurately puts them on the map - sounds simple but so many apps usually fail here. - The application does what it says and when I type in an address it shows all of the contacts within a reasonable driving distance. For example when I entered Cincinnati contacts out as far as Columbus, Dayton and Cleveland were shown. - You can enter the desired location in many ways - zip codes, towns and cities - even abbreviations such as LA were recognized. - You can enter a location or use the current location. - The app seems to use google maps to show the location so the display is very familiar. Negative points - The map function does not allow all contacts to be viewed on the map at once, you must enter a location and only contacts around that location will be shown. If for example I enter Philadelphia, I cannot then scroll across the map to see contacts in Boston - they wont be shown. I would need to enter Boston as a location to see them. - Every time that I enter a new location, the app scans through my 1000 contacts in my contacts list to see who is close to the location. This can take 20 seconds or so. Overall I would say the the Plus points significantly outweigh the negative points. None of the negative points are deal breakers, where as the plus points are all great. I am happy to solve the need I have had for a long time for only $0.99 and the need to wait 20 seconds is not really too much time to wait considering that it saves me probably 10-20 minutes of searching through my contacts and mapping them individually on google maps. Update to review - I use this app all of the time. IOS 6 is now out and it doesnt use Google Maps any more. I want to upgrade to IOS6 but I am worried whether or not this app will work with IOS 6. It would be useful if the developer could comment on this matter.

Will this work with io6? This app is wonderful!

I depend on this app so much that I wont upgrade to Apple Maps if your app is not supported. If only company names were shown it would be an even better sales tool for those of us with an impossible large territory. The first index took about an hour to build. Subsequent local areas only require seconds. Keep up the good work!!

Updating contacts

Some people complained that it took to long to update contacts. I have 800 contacts. I dont have addresses on each contact. The first time was slow when i tried to map the location, but the second time I try to map my contacts it was very fast just updating my contacts. You do have to check the settings if you want more than 15 displayed. So far it has been great. Im looking forward to using it when Im traveling. Great app.

Doesnt work

App doesnt load contacts. I have 976 and was hoping to use this as a sales tool but after trying literally all day I have not been able to use this on my iPhone 4S I requested support but I get a 404 page not found error in French. Id like either a fix or a refund please.

MapContacts

The app was working fine but recently stopped working. It is not recognizing cities to search anymore. And it now takes extremely long to go through 250 contacts.

App does nothing !

It takes a long time to scan 700 contacts , and then the results of mapping the contact is zero !!

Fantastic !

For those who are having troubles, this works best when you have google maps installed. I have 886 contacts an once they got loaded everything works well.just play with it and push all the buttons, its a great app for getting directions to your contacts business address or friends address quickly. I love it.

Doesnt work.

Takes a long time to load contacts (every time) then doesnt show any in the contacts list or map. I have 800+ contacts. The support page is a broken link.

UPDATE: It works!

It still has to scan all your contacts every time...but now it actually shows contacts in a list and on the map. I just wish it could sync with your contacts so you didnt have to wait each time. If you have a lot of contact changes, THEN you could choose to re-sync.
