It may take some time for changes to automatically sync to your contacts (up to 8 hours).

This said - here is how to force the app to sync on iPhone and Android:

  1. Go to the app's Settings screen

  2. Toggle Contact Syncing from On to Off

  3. Toggle Contact Syncing back to On

All changes should update in your phone contacts.

Note: If you set up contact syncing on your iPhone using the CardDav legacy method, please try the steps below:

  1. Go to your iPhone Settings

  2. Tap Mail, Contacts, Calendars

  3. Tap Haystack

  4. Toggle Account from On to Off

  5. Toggle Account back to On
