Google Contacts is a contact management service developed by Google. It is available as an Android mobile app, a web app, or on the sidebar of Gmail as part of Google Workspace.

History

Google Contacts originated as the built-in contacts manager in Gmail, which was introduced in 2007.[1] It was later released as an Android app for Nexus devices in 2010,[2] before it became available for all Android phones in 2015.[3] A standalone web application was released the same year, featuring a revamped user interface.[4] It returned to Gmail in the form of a sidebar in 2020 as part of Google Workspace.[5]

Interpolation

The service can also be synchronized with Apple's Contacts app on iOS and Samsung's Contacts app on Galaxy.[6][7] It could also be synced with Google Sync before its discontinuation.[8]

Reception

In 2011, with the introduction of higher-density screens and larger internal memories on Android devices, Google Contacts was heavily criticized for only supporting lower-resolution photos in Android Jelly Bean.[9] This limitation was lifted the following year.[10]
