Tips

Default Account

Set Waymaker as your default contacts account so new contacts are saved there:

iPhone/iPad:

  1. Go to Settings > Contacts
  2. Tap Default Account
  3. Select your Waymaker account

Android:

  1. Open Contacts
  2. Go to Settings
  3. Set Default account for new contacts

Contact Groups

Contact groups created in Commander will sync to your devices. Use groups to organize contacts by project, team, or category.

Sync Frequency

  • ActiveSync: Near-instant (push)
  • CardDAV: Depends on app settings (typically 15-60 minutes)

For faster CardDAV sync, reduce the sync interval in your app settings.

Backup

Your contacts are stored on Waymaker's servers and sync to your devices. This means:

  • Contacts are backed up automatically
  • If you lose your device, contacts are safe
  • Add a new device and sync to restore contacts
