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.

Link contact records 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 57.
