Contacts synceable with cloud back up privacy friendly app

Hello, previously I had the simple contact app but my phone was stolen and I lost all my contacts. Do you know a privacy friendly contact app that I can synce with cloud ?

I have a Tab - Nextcloud account. There is a contact feature on the web interface but no mobile app... Thanks

NextCloud Contacts supports syncing using the CardDAV standard. iOS supports this natively and it can be used on Android with the DAVx5 app. There are also desktop apps that support it as well such as Thunderbird.

I used to use Etesync (fdroid) but left in favor of a quarterly backup of my contacts vcf file via syncthing.

What do you use to backup the .vcf file?

I just export the .vcf from the contacts app into my documents folder and syncthing backs it up to my computer

In case you or OP uses nextcloud, the nextcloud mobile app has the option to backup contacts automatically too

How can I find the nextcloud mobile app ? When I tap "nextcloud contact" on fdroid or play store I don't find anything...

What contacts app?

I use the contacts app built into lineage. Tap hamburger menu, tap settings, tap export
