Avoiding duplicate entries in the Contacts application

If you synchronize 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.

5When you are finished, tap Done.

After you select a synchronization account in step 3, that account will show as the default account offered the next time you add a contact, but you can change the account by editing the contact after it is saved.

If you add a plus sign and the country code before a contact's phone number, you do not have to edit the number again when you make calls from other countries.
