About Contacts

With the Contacts app, you can sync your phone with contacts from your Google Account, computer, and Facebook. You can also sync with work contacts from the Exchange ActiveSync Server in your workplace. To find out how, see "Ways of getting contacts into your phone".

Per contact, link the person’s information from all these different sources as one so you won’t have duplicated entries in your contacts list. To find out how to link, see "Merging contact information".

And that’s not all. You can manage your communications with your contacts via phone, messaging, and email without the need to jump from one app to another. After you’ve linked contacts to their social network accounts like Facebook, Twitter, and Flickr, you’ll also see their updates and events from these accounts all in one place.
