But it is taking 1-2 minutes to fetch contacts in my ionic 3 app

and my app gets hang

please help me to reduce fetching time from device

What is your ionic info output?
What is your code?
How are you building your app?
How many contacts does your testing device have?

Your Cordova tooling seems to be out of date, which might be causing all kinds of problems.
You can read about how to figure out the current Cordova versions and how to update CLI, platforms and plugins here: How to update Cordova CLI, Platforms and Plugins ยท ionic.zone

Also old. Using https://update.ionic.zone might help

Then post the updated ionic info, so we can confirm and exclude version problems as the cause.
