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.

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.
