Google Contacts, like most of their products, keeps changing and getting worse. Somewhere along the way it deleted all of the street address information from my contacts!

Ideally looking for a tool that checks these boxes:

  • Open-source
  • Android, Web, and (if necessary) Linux and Windows clients
  • Stores contact info locally (i.e. self-hosted)
  • Stores contact info securely (encrypted)
  • Can store in a cloud location (e.g. Sync, Dropbox)

It seems like a tall order, but KeePass has managed to do that with their password vault, so why not contact info?

Any success stories out there?

Honestly, maybe I'm old fashioned, but I just use the AOSP contacts app on the phone and then export a CSV file and keep a copy of that in my database on KeyPass.
