Comments on Contacts Sync (requires ROOT) for Android

★★★★★ SHAWON · Feb 22, 2026
The app is working perfectly on my device now. Huge thanks to the developer for the quick and helpful support. 😊
★★★★★ hamidreza hedayati · Jun 27, 2022
It's exactly what I need, and it does its job in the best way. Anyway I have 2 WhatsApp, and I need to sync my other WhatsApp (WhatsApp) contacts too. If the developer can add an option that the app opens WhatsApp instead of default WhatsApp it will be the best.
★★★★★ Iliana Krugliakov · May 19, 2020
Doesn't work for OnePlus 6 (has root) pls fix and I will change the rating [update] ok this worked after the developer told me to wait some time after it's done scrolling. IF IT DOESN'T WORK FOR YOU TRY WAITING
★☆☆☆☆ Shahar Ofir · Sep 1, 2021
Stopped working suddenly. Worked great, but on my Samsung 21 Ultra A11 it doesn't work anymore. All permissions granted and device is rooted
★★☆☆☆ Starky · Oct 6, 2025
Worked fine before, now does not complete. There seems to be lack of "no profile photo" handling in the code, it will just sit there on a black profile photo, if you hit back it will sit on their numbers done page, if you hit stop it will go to sync all the photos it managed to grab. Needs better error handling!

Description by AndroidDeveloperLB Written by the developer, not by AppBrain. Click to read.
Uses root to sync your address book with high-quality contacts photos.
This way, during calls and inside the address book app, you could see who you are talking to!

The operation is almost entirely automatic, and you can choose which contacts to avoid syncing.

Disclaimer:
The app does what you can do anyway by yourself: get photos from folders that are accessible via root and later set each to the person in the address book, just like on any file-manager app (that has root capabilities).

Please check the FAQ on the official forum before using this app including the requirements to use it :

Note that you MUST have a rooted device in order to run this app.
