Address book apps are frequently used to keep track of family members, business associates, and personal friends. However, address book apps can also be used to manage one's professional contacts or organization memberships based on geographic location or industry affiliation.
Address book apps are often related to other social networking apps, which can be used to sync address books to other devices and share address books with contacts. These apps often include the ability to tag addresses and connect them with other data.

To become an app that is used by hundreds of millions of users, an address book app needs to offer a tool that is useful for every single person on the planet. To achieve this, an address book app should be able to automatically generate contact information for people who are not in the user's address book. An address book app should also allow users to easily connect with their friends, family members, and coworkers without having to copy/paste contact info between different apps.
Address book apps face risks related to both security and privacy. Address book apps should have robust mechanisms for verifying the identity of users and ensuring that only authorized users can modify user data. Address book apps should also have strong authentication mechanisms for the storage of user data to prevent unauthorized access. Apps with a business model related to sharing contact information may require compliance with laws pertaining to the sale, rental, or exchange of personal information.
