A couple of contacts duplicate, one i have 500 times,

It seems every time i look at this contact I have even more duplicates. Just not imaginable to delete or merge one by one - and they just keep coming back - like the blob ... anyone found a simple solution ?

If you have the same contacts stored in multiple email accounts and if you add these accounts in an iPhone it may display as duplicates.


Unlike some Android devices, contacts are neither stored locally on an iPhone nor in SIM. They are synced to an email account that you had Google, iCloud, AOL, Exchange, Outlook, Yahoo or any Other
