Key Features

Selective contact export

Select entire address book accounts, groups, individual contacts, and external vCard files to be included in a single export.

Reusable export setups

Create and save multiple export setups for recurring exports. Each setup remembers your selected contacts and contact fields.

Custom field layouts

Use the Simple Field Chooser for quick exports, or the Custom Export Layout Editor to define exactly which fields appear in which order.

Many export formats

Export to CSV, Excel, XML, Google Contacts CSV, Outlook for Windows CSV, and Outlook for Mac OLM with full file structure support.

Advanced field support

Export street name and house number separately, combine multiple phone numbers or e-mail addresses into a single cell, and format phone numbers uniformly.

100% private

All contact conversion takes place locally on your Mac. The app doesn't collect any data — a clear advantage over online converters.

"This is the only app I could find that can convert vcf contact lists to csv. It has many conversion options and worked perfectly the first time I tried it."
