Push and hold a Contact. Some Buttons for Delete or Escape apears.

It does not work. Still have the list when tch phone. Where are contacts stored?

I found
~/.local/share/evolution/addressbook/system/contacts.db
Delete de .db, clean the caché and still see contacts when touching the phone icon
SOLVED. With a reboot

Mobian uses an Evolution address book. It is stored in:

Code:
~/.local/share/evolution/addressbook/system/contacts.db

If I'm going to make a lot of changes I bring the contacts.db file over to my desktop Linux system to edit it in Evolution, then copy it back over to the Pinephone. Reboot Pinephone and the changes are picked up.

You can also delete contacts right on the phone. Bring up your contacts and select the one you want to delete. Then hit the three dots button on the upper right corner and select "Delete".
