Step by step with Contaxo

  1. Tap Word

    On the Home tab of Contaxo, tap Word. Every page of the document appears in the preview.

  2. Choose the columns

    Keep only the fields you need. The preview updates as you change them.

  3. Filter the list

    Pick one group or only contacts with a phone, an email or a company.

  4. Export

    Tap Export and save the .docx file, or send it to your computer to edit.

Good uses for a Word contact list

  • A club, school or church directory you can add a heading and notes to.
  • A staff phone list to pin on a wall.
  • A list to send to someone who will edit it before printing.

Phones and iCloud cannot export contacts to Word. Without an app you would export a CSV, open it in Excel and copy the table into Word.
