Merging contact information

Avoid duplicate entries by merging contact information from different sources, such as your social network accounts, into one contact.

Accepting contact link suggestions

When HTC U11 finds contacts that can be merged, you’ll see a link notification when you open the People app.

  1. From the Home screen, swipe up and then find and tap People.
  2. On the People tab, tap the Contact link suggestion notification when available. You'll see a list of suggested contacts to merge.
  3. Tap Linked contact indicator next to the contact you want to merge. Otherwise, tap Unlinked contact indicator to dismiss the link suggestion.
Tip: If you don't want to receive contact link suggestions, on the People tab, tap Menu icon > Settings. Clear the Suggest contact link option.

Manually merging contact information

  1. On the People tab, tap the name of the contact (not the icon or photo) you want to link.

  3. You can:
    • Under Suggest links, link the contact to an account.
    • Under Add contact, tap one of the options to link to another contact.

Breaking the link

  1. On the People tab, tap the name of the contact (not the icon or photo) whose link you want to break.
  2. Tap Menu icon > Link.
  3. Under the Linked contacts section, tap Linked contact indicator beside an account to break the link.
