## 2.2 Top 5 Stale Issues
We consider stale issues to be issues that has had no activity within the last 30 days. The team should work together to get these issues resolved and closed as soon as possible. 1. [**VCF import is stuck or will timeout**](https://github.com/monicahq/monica/issues/7390): This issue is about a bug where the VCF import feature in Monica fails to complete, either timing out after 30 seconds or not starting the importing process at all when using the 'sync' or 'redis' options, respectively. This issue has been open for 360 days and 21 hours, and it involves users trying to import contacts from a VCF file (exported from Google) into Monica, encountering issues with the import process not succeeding as expected due to timeout errors or the process not starting at all. 2. [**CardDAV/CalDAV sync add modify with OSX/IOS/Android etc.**](https://github.com/monicahq/monica/issues/7391): This issue is requesting the implementation of CardDAV/CalDAV sync for Monica, allowing it to be used as a full Calendar and Contacts Backend for IOS and other platforms. The issue also mentions the need to open up the DAV implementation so Monica can be used on mobile devices with their native apps, as well as exploring easier ways to add LDAP or other sync methods. 3. [**Feature Request: Video Journal (to elevate journaling to a whole new level)**](https://github.com/monicahq/monica/issues/7392): This issue is a feature request for a Video Journal to elevate journaling to a whole new level. The user has been filming themselves for a video journal for four years and is looking for a method to index/store these videos, with features such as transcribing audio for OCR-style searching and brief reviews, and a feature for video playback to simplify video journaling. This feature is being requested because the user believes video journaling offers a more personal approach to documenting one's life, capturing aspects that cannot be fully expressed through text alone. It adds multiple layers to the chronicle of one's life, making it a valuable addition to the journaling experience. 4. [**Unable to delete an account that registered through Github**](https://github.com/monicahq/monica/issues/7398): This issue pertains to the inability to delete an account that was registered through Github on the Monica platform. The bug prevents users from successfully deleting their accounts, despite following the necessary steps. 5. [**is there an app**](https://github.com/monicahq/monica/issues/7399): This issue is a query about the availability of an app version for the GitHub project, with the user expressing interest in potentially building additional features if one does not exist. It has been open for 344 days, 7 hours, and 54 minutes as of the last update on February 9, 2025.
