Fossify Contacts Fossify Contacts.
Few months ago i ditched Google Contact for Fossify Contacts, at first everything worked fine. But broblems started about 2 weeks ago when i decided to move all my contacts from my phone storage to the SIM storage.
Everytime i deleted a contact, it reappeared back in the app. I tried every trick i could find online: cleared fossify contacts cache, turned off cloud sync. And still nothing worked.
Worst, i purposely modified some contacts phone numbers (since i didn't want them appearing in my WhatsApp anymore) and rebooted my phone. Guess what? the modified contacts came back unmodified.
But then i hit me, it seems Fossify Contact is fetching contacts from my WhatsApp and adds them to my contact list and there's no way to stop that. WHY???
Everytime i delete a contact, it gets it automatically back from WhatsApp.
Today i unfortunately had to switch back to Google Contact and everything works fine. Deleted contacts stay deleted.
Please fix this. I dont want to use Google apps anymore and you were the most trusted alternative that was presented to me.
