Hi, im on iOS 17 and iPad is 17 latest version. I have a lot of double contacts, but my iphone isn’t showing me the option to merge them. I have also checked under www.iCloud.com
attached 2 screenashots, maybe someone can help me. Many thanks and have a great Sunday.

Making sure you’re in the “All Contacts” List, scroll all the way to the bottom of your contacts and you should see “[Number] Duplicates Found” in blue text below the last entry. Click the blue text to get to the duplicates menu where you can choose to merge them.
Hope this helps.
Same problem with new large numbers of duplicates not recognised in 17
iPhone doesn’t show me the option to merge duplicate contacts
NO, that does not work; there is no <Duplicates found> button below my card. It used to be there but is no more.
Has this issue been resolved?
This article does not resolve our issues
There is nothing below “my card”. It opens “my card” and there isn’t an option to merge duplicate contacts there either.
Thank you
That’s a very clever suggestion, so I thought I’d give that a go, but it didn’t correct the problem on my iPhone 14 Pro Max running 17.4.1.
it’s worth taking a crack at it, though.

I doubt it. Coincidence.
Yay I’m so glad it worked!!
This worked for me too! Thank you.
This worked! It takes a few seconds to update, but wow that worked. Thanks!
Still can't do that because "Duplicate" is missing.
Thank you so much! I will give this another go! :-)
Ah, that’s a shame; sorry I couldn’t help.
It’s very weird. I only get the option at the bottom of the “All Contacts” List.
I’ll be sure to post back if I come across any other ideas…
Cheers
