Excellent: Syncs ios 13 with MacBook, inc Groups

On updating to ios 13 the iPhone's integral Contacts app failed to keep the lists of contacts in the Groups I'd set up, even though the lists are still all in the Groups on my MacBook. It just kept the titles of the actual Groups in the iPhone. (Very annoying, as all the earlier ios's worked properly.) But this A2Z app has turned out to be excellent, it has helped me sort it: it's got a very simple & quick method to manually go through my list of (1,500!) contacts so I've been able to repopulate each group very easily directly on my iPhone. When I then sync (with iTunes) it syncs the changes correctly (in either direction) with my MacBook. It's a nice looking app with other useful features too, so I'm now using it instead of the iPhone's integral app! Thanks A2Z people!

Pretty good for a simple improvement on iOS

As long as the numbers are in your phone already or you manually enter them in your regular contacts you can then create lots of categories and pull them into the groups. You can name the groups as you need. The groups appear alphabetically, so if you have a lot of categories better make them with names so they appear near the top. Tech responses to questions was excellent during setup
EDIT - A further 6 months on and with iTunes now dropping sync of Contacts from Outlook to iPhone I am now using this as my main go-to reference for contacts. Very useful

Solved Apple issues

My Contacts and Phone built in Apps were just showing blank screens and were not usable. I had about 250 contacts and discovered in iCloud that the 5 or 6 groups I had created had duplicated numerous times. This was clearly overloading the system and trying to delete them one by one would have taken a lifetime. Having tried other third party Apps without success I found A2Z which has solved the problem. It backed up my contacts and then deleted the groups (over 23,000!) very quickly. The Apple system now works again, but I will be keeping A2Z as a trusty and reliable backup.
