   Persodex▲104

   Hey HN, I built a personal CRM that stores everything in the native iPhone Contacts app instead of another database. The goal was to make the Contacts app I’ve used for years actually useful. I’d love to hear what you think. Especially whether you prefer extending native apps over adopting entirely new tools. Since this is one of the first releases, i would love to get any feedback you have! Alex
