About this app
pcontacts signs in to your Proton Mail account, decrypts your contacts client-side using OpenPGP, and exposes them to the system Contacts app so they appear alongside your local contacts — the same way WhatsApp or Telegram surface their own contact directories. This app is not affiliated with or endorsed by Proton AG.
