Avoiding duplicate entries in the Contacts application

If you synchronise your contacts with a new account or import contact information in
other ways, you could end up with duplicate entries in the Contacts application. If this
happens, you can join such duplicates to create a single entry. And if you join entries
by mistake, you can separate them again later.

2 Tap the contact you want to link with another contact.
3 Press , then tap Link contact.
4 Tap the contact whose information you want to join with the first contact, then
tap OK to confirm. The information from the first contact is merged with the
second contact, and the first contact is no longer displayed in the Contacts list.

Adding and editing contacts

You can create, edit and synchronise your contacts in a few simple steps. You can
select contacts saved in different accounts and manage how you display them on
your device.
If you synchronise your contacts with more than one account, you can join contacts
on your device to avoid duplicates.

account offered the next time you add a contact, but you can change the account by editing
the contact after it is saved.

have to edit the number again when you make calls from other countries.
