I love this app! It’s intuitive, fast, and makes managing contacts a breeze. Automatic sync, grouping, and quick search make it really practical. Highly recommended for anyone wanting an efficient, user-friendly contacts app.
Distance doesn’t end friendships. Forgetting to write does. Starrise keeps your faraway friends close, right on the contacts already on your iPhone.

FOR LONG-DISTANCE FRIENDSHIPS
Why Friends Far Apart Choose Starrise
Notes
When you only talk every few weeks, the details matter: the new flatmate, the job interview, the cat’s vet visit. Dated notes help you ask about the right thing next time.
Birthday Reminders
A birthday is the one day you shouldn’t be late, especially from far away. Get a reminder at the time you choose, and keep gift ideas for the parcel you send.
Custom Sorting
Sort by city to see who lives where, or by last opened to notice who you haven’t looked up in months.
Get Starrise Contacts on the AppStore
Keep your friends close, wherever they live. Free to download, no account needed.
Archive & Favorite
Friends abroad collect numbers: the old one from home, the new local one, the work line. Archive the ones that no longer work and favorite the one they actually use.
Map
See your friends on a world map. Planning a trip? Find out who lives near your destination and turn a stopover into a reunion.
Quick Action Buttons
Friends abroad are on WhatsApp, Telegram or Signal, not on your phone plan. Set the app each friend uses, and a message is one tap away.
HOW FRIENDS FAR APART USE IT
Distance Is Easy to Bridge. Silence Isn’t.
Long-distance friendships rarely end with a fight. They fade: a missed call, a busy month, a reply you meant to write. Starrise Contacts gives you a gentle nudge before that happens, and the context to pick up right where you left off.
- A rhythm for each friend: Keep in Touch reminders (Pro) for a call every few weeks with your closest friends, every few months with the wider circle.
- Their big days: write “moving into the new flat on the 3rd” in a note, and Moments (Pro) reminds you on the day, so you can ask how it went.
- Shared memories: attach a photo or a ticket from your last visit to their contact.
- The next trip: a to-do with a reminder (Pro) for the visit you keep promising each other, so you finally book it.
