Network
Everyone you know. In one place.
Today your contacts are scattered everywhere: in your phone, in chats, on platforms, on business cards. In Nodbase they all come together, clearly, with everything you know about them.
- Encrypted on your device
- As a list or a web
- Search from the first letter
List and web
See your network the way you like.
Switch between list and web at the top left. The list shows everyone, with categories, filters and sorting. In the web every dot is a person, and the lines show who knows whom.
However you start – a few people by hand or your device’s contacts – everything ends up in this one place.
In the app: Network › switch at the top left

Person page
Everything about a person on one page.
Tap a name to see everything you know about someone: role, company, place, how you know each other, what they can help with and how to reach them.
- Reach them directly. Message, Call, Mail and Meet sit at the top. Meet adds an event to your calendar.
- Notes. Whatever you want to remember. Search finds the person by these notes later, too.
- Keep in touch. A reminder, Important or Don’t Remind, right on the person’s page.
- Ways to reach them. Phone, email and the ways you reach them on other platforms.
In the app: Network › person
Keep in Touch
Staying in touch keeps a connection strong.
Reminders
This Week
Organise
Organise as much as you like.
You decide how much order you want. None of it is required.
Categories
Create your own categories, like “Clients”, “Uni” or “Family”. A person can be in several.
Filter and sort
Filter the list by category and sort it the way you like. Use “•••” to select several people at once.
Add Details
Add what comes to mind about people over time. The notes help search.
Edit and delete
Edit or delete any contact at any time. The app asks before deleting.
Who knows whom
See who can connect you with whom.
On a person’s page you note whom they know. That becomes your extended network: people you know through others.
Ask “Who knows a photographer?” later and search also finds people you only know through someone, and shows you through whom.
In the app: Person › Who … knows › Add Person
Connections
Private contacts and connections.
There are two kinds of people in your network.
- Private contacts
- Everyone you add or import yourself. They don’t know about it and don’t need Nodbase. What you note about them stays encrypted on your device.
- Connections
- People who also use Nodbase and with whom you swapped cards or accepted a request. You can message and call them, end-to-end encrypted.
- Requests
- When someone wants to connect, you see it at the top of Network and in Chats. You accept or decline.
- Your data
- Contacts, notes and relationships never go to our server. You can export your network as a CSV file at any time.
Frequently asked questions
Do my contacts need Nodbase?
No. You add or import private contacts without them noticing. Only people you want to message or call in the app need Nodbase.
Where is my network stored?
Only on your device, encrypted. It isn’t in your backup, so nobody but you can get to it. That’s why a new device starts empty: export your network first under Settings › Data & Storage › Export Network.
Can I export my network?
Yes. Settings › Data & Storage › Export Network gives you all people and notes as a table (CSV). The file isn’t encrypted; you decide where it goes.
Are my device contacts changed?
No. Nodbase only reads your device’s contacts to show them to you for selection. Only the people you select are imported.
