Unied Contacts
When you sync contacts with multiple accounts, you might have entries for the same
person in more than one account. To keep redundant contacts from appearing in the
All Contacts list, you can link contacts that have the same rst and last name (but not
a dierent prex, sux, or middle name) and display them as a single unied contact.
When you view a unied contact, the title Unied Info appears at the bottom of the
contact’s entry. Unied contacts appear only when you view the All Contacts list.
Link contacts: Find the rst contact that you want to link, then tap Edit. Tap and
select the other contact, then tap Link.
When a contact is linked, tap the silhouette icon to view, add, or delete linked entries.
Linked contacts aren’t merged. Unless you edit a unied contact, the contact in each
source account remains separate. If you change information in a unied contact, the
changes are copied to each source account that information already exists in. If you
add information to a unied contact, that information is added to the contact in each
source account.
