This plugin shows all the contacts included into the backup (which may include not just the local device address, but also the contacts from the accounts: Exchange/Outlook, iCloud, Google etc, if synced with the device). Select the contact on the left, and all the information that is available for it will be shown on the right.
The general information about the contact is usually the following:
•Contact photo/image/avatar
•Created/modified date and time (including the time zone)
Please note that for BlackBerry and iOS devices the time is stated as it is (was) set on the device; for Windows Phone, the time is the same as on the local PC (the actual time zone of the device is not available).
If the timezone of the device is not detected for BlackBerry and iOS devices, the time will be displayed in UTC time and the corresponding warning will be displayed in the Journal of the View menu.
Note that the timezone is shown correctly for full iCloud backups but might be also shown always in UTC if only selected categories have been downloaded.
•First and last name
•Company name
•Phone numbers
•Groups
•Other info (email, web site, links to social media profiles, etc)
Note that the list of contact properties may vary from device to device and account type.
