Linking Contacts

Linking Contact Information

Your device can synchronize with multiple accounts, including Google, Corporate, and other providers, plus social networking sites like Facebook. When you synchronize contacts from these accounts with your device, you may have multiple contacts for one person.

Linking contact records allows you to see all the contact’s numbers and addresses together. Linking also helps you keep your contacts updated because any changes to information in the respective accounts is automatically updated the next time you synchronize with the account.

The next time you synchronize your phone with your accounts, any updates that contacts make to email account names, email addresses, and so on, automatically update in your contacts list.

For more information about synchronizing accounts, see “Synchronizing Accounts” on page 44.
