I am searching for something to sync my phone contacts between multiple phones for some time. Best case it shouldn't use DAVx^5 and should support Android and iOS. Thanks for your suggestions!
What I found so far:
Nextcloud - but needs DAVx^5
Radicale - also needs DAVx^5
SoGo - needs some CARD-DAV application

What's your problem with DAVx^5? It's completely and permanently free and fully-featured on f-droid. Only the PlayStore version costs money. The authors don't want to make money, but motivate you to move away from Google infrastructure.
If you only need address/phone number sync, then nextcloud is probably overkill, but I use it, and it works great. Also for calendar sync and file storage.

They posted from mastodon though, so they do need to mention the community in order to cross post there.
Ah, I see. I suspected it might be something like that. I've never tried that.
really? that is cool. i did not realise that was possible. ah fediverse... so many possibilities!
You can even call mastodon bots here, e.g. @[email protected] in 5 minutes
@redcalcium Here is your reminder!
Thank you my dear bot
I agree that DAVx^5 is really good. OP is from Mastodon, which might explain the funny post title.
Because Davx5 only works with Android and he stated he wants something that syncs across all of his devices. I came across this posting because I am also looking for a solution to sync contacts between my Android and iPhone. I am trying to get away from Nextcloud because it's overkill for my use case... So far I have tried Radicale and Baikal but neither works for iOS.
