Show HN: I built a personal CRM that lives inside Apple's Contacts app
Hey HN, I built a personal CRM that stores everything in the native iPhone Contacts app instead of another database. The goal was to make the Contacts app I’ve used for years actually useful.
I’d love to hear what you think. Especially whether you prefer extending native apps over adopting entirely new tools. Since this is one of the first releases, i would love to get any feedback you have!

- jugglerjer 2mo agoIt's super clever to leverage the Contacts app as your database. How do you handle storing the timeline of interactions, which I would think needs more structure than a raw notes field? Full disclosure: I make Queue, which is also a personal CRM with deep Contacts app integration. That said I'm just genuinely curious.
- poolie 2mo ago@jugglerjer hey there. of course i know queue, nice to meet you! it actually doesn‘t need more strcture because i save it »very raw« in the notes field like 2026-03-31;Meetingtype;Text;Location
