- Import/export: Supports importing from and exporting to common formats (CSV, vCard) for easy transfer.
- Sorting & filters: View by upcoming month, contact groups, or alphabetical order.
- Privacy-focused: Local storage and optional encrypted data file to protect sensitive information.

If you want, I can write a short product description for a store listing, create onboarding steps tailored to Windows or macOS, or draft a privacy-friendly settings page.
