History
Google Contacts originated as the built-in contacts manager in Gmail, which was introduced in 2007.[4] It was later released as an Android app for Nexus devices in 2010,[5] before it became available for all Android phones in 2015.[6] A standalone web application was released the same year, featuring a revamped user interface.[7] It returned to Gmail in the form of a sidebar in 2020 as part of Google Workspace.[8]

Interpolation
The service can also be synchronized with Apple's Contacts app on iOS and Samsung's Contacts app on Galaxy.[9][10] It could also be synced with Google Sync before its discontinuation.[11]
Reception
In 2011, with the introduction of higher-density screens and larger internal memories on Android devices, Google Contacts was heavily criticized for only supporting lower-resolution photos in Android Jelly Bean.[12] This limitation was lifted the following year.[13]
