I've got loads of people in my contacts
list twice or even three times. Can I
quickly delete the duplicates without
trawli rig through them all
Contacts can be easily duplicated on your
phone, leading to an unnecessarily bulky
contacts list. Whenever you sync your phone with
you’ Gmail and social media accounts, those
contacts get added to your list, whether they're
alreadythere or not. Also, when you switch phones
or SIM cards, contacts that are saved on your
phone appear alongside those saved on your SIM
card and vice versa. This results in that bloated
contacts list that takes ages to scroll through.
Vlos: Android phones will offer you the option to
streamline your contacts list in Settings. This will
be a manual action, but you should be able to
specd through your list quickly as deleting the
duplicated contacts is as easy as checking a box.
However, should you wantto delete your copied
contacts without scrolling through hundreds of
e'ttries, there are a number of apps that will find
them and delete them on your behalf.
Onc othcr way to get rid of duplicated contacts
is to unli nk your Google account from your
contacts list. You'll still be able to use all of your
normal Google services, but your contacts list will
purely be for phone numbers, not for email
addresses and the other data that syncing with
Google provides.
