I’m using an Android phone and a MacBook. Syncing contacts between Google and Apple is easy enough. The problem is that labels I create in Google Contacts on my phone don’t carry over to Apple Contacts on my Mac. Doing it the other way around is even worse. I downloaded BusyContacts and Cardhop but I’m not really sure what they’re supposed to do here. Neither seems to actually sync labels/groups between Google and Apple. Has anyone found a Mac app that handles this? What’s working for you?

That's unfortunate, suppose that's what I'll have to do. If only there was an app that synced Google Contact labels to Apple's Contacts app.
Downloaded it and am really confused what problem its supposed to solve compared to the native Apple Contacts app.
Probably will download once it gets more reviews.
I do not know exactly what you want to accomplish. But BusyContacts is probably the most versatile contacts app you can find. I guess it will need a little bit of experimenting to get what you want. BusyContacts has quite a few nice features compared to Apple's native Contacts app.
Back when I had an android phone I had the same problem. What worked for me is a little workaround: I keep Google contacts as the single source of truth on the phone, and on Mac, when I need the labels, I used a separate google Contacts browser window next to the apple contacts. Not an elegant solution but it does the job, I don't think that there is a program or app that solves this problem flawlessly.

I would probably frame this around one very specific user and one annoying moment in their day. That makes it much easier for people here to react with useful feedback.
