Yeah it's been alluded to several times in several places, but no such luck yet. I dunno why, this seems like it should be super easy...it's obviously already built into the mail app, all they need is a dedicated frontend for it and integration into the Android system.
Yeah there's a post on their feedback forum that has said this is in development for years. Every so often I go back and leave a comment like "it's 2024, where is this?". Guess I can go leave one for 2025 now
They will release some other service nobody asked before they will fix the contacts situation....
This has been one of the most requested features for years
Thank for all your comments, it is now clear that I need to look elsewhere to work around this requirement. And push for a release of this contact sync feat.
I have been curious about this. I do hope they add it.
