iPhone grants all or nothing access to contacts on a per app basis. What that means is that you can deny an app access to all your contacts or grant an app access to all your contacts, but you cannot grant/deny an app access to individual contacts.

You can revoke access any time if you wish.

Can't understand this... also because Tim is very security/privacy cautious.....

Or are there technical reasons apart from comfort?

Thank's!
