What's new in Kontax

We ship most weeks — new features, refinements, and fixes as we work toward the most reliable address book on every device. Everything that's changed is here, newest first.

Updated 28 May 2026Subscribe via RSS
v3.3Search experience upgrade
Added
  • Search results are now grouped by match type — name, email, phone, label, and note.
  • Full keyboard navigation through the search dropdown, with Enter to open.
Improved
  • Search now matches inside notes and company names, not just names.
  • The exact matched text is highlighted in every result.
Fixed
  • Diacritic-insensitive matching — searching "Perez" now finds "Pérez".
v3.2Shared address books & roles

Our biggest release this quarter: Family and Teams plans can now share a single address book, with roles that decide who can change what.

Added
  • Shared address books for Family and Teams plans.
  • Owner, Editor, and Viewer roles with per-book permissions.
Improved
  • Live updates across members — fix a number once and everyone sees it.
Security
  • Share invitations now expire after 7 days and can only be used once.
v3.1Two-way sync

Connect Google and Outlook and Kontax now keeps both sides in step — edits flow in both directions, with a clear status on every connection.

Added
  • Two-way sync for Google Contacts and Outlook.
  • Per-connection sync status and last-synced time on the Sync page.
Improved
  • Delta sync via CardDAV sync-tokens — far less bandwidth on large books.
Security
  • CardDAV app passwords now revoke immediately, on the client's next request.
v3.0Merge duplicates & mobile app
Added
  • Duplicate detection with a side-by-side merge review.
  • Installable mobile PWA with offline access to your contacts.
Improved
  • Import mapping now remembers your column choices between files.
Fixed
  • vCard import no longer drops additional phone numbers on some contacts.
