Feature Request: Addressbook import/export #6772

Imagine you're a dilligent Monero user who regularly makes transactions to more than a dozen destinations.

Naturally, because address reuse in Monero is not a problem, you'll save the destination address and names/identifiers to the address book.

Now imagine you run a wallet on your laptop, desktop, and two mobile devices. And you want to share addresses between them.

It would be helpful to have a way to selectively (some entries) or entirely (the whole thing) export and import addressbook data between different wallets - presumably, they're all backed by monero-wallet-cli and the import/export would be compatible.

For only a few addresses you don't really notice the difference - I have been copying them manually forever, after all.

But when the address book grows beyond about two dozen ... this could really come in handy.

Would be nice if you could sync it with QR codes.

@nasaWelder, is this something to consider for lunlumo?

@garlicgambit Yes, it's on the roadmap.
