Last week we introduced you few simple methods how to <a href="http://mergix.com/blog/posts/2016-04-20/how-to-transfer-contacts-from-android-to-iphone">transfer contacts from iPhone to Android</a>. This time, we're going to share with you great tips on how you can move contacts from iPhone to Android device.
</p>
<h3>
Migrate contacts from iPhone to Android
</h3>
<p>
There are two simple ways of transferring contacts from iPhone to Android. To start with you need to have iCloud and Google accounts created.
</p>
<p>
<b>Option #1</b>
</p>
<p>
You can simply export your contact list from iPhone using your iCloud account.
</p>
<p>
Sign into iCloud on your computer and then, click Contacts. Once you get to the next screen, select All Contacts and hit Command+A or CTRL+A to select all contacts.
</p>
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-cFi8A2yJncY/Vx328e9YUqI/AAAAAAAAAYA/GkVRbuUALpwvl4IJZqcuhBtjdSbECfNyACLcB/s1600/1icloud.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-cFi8A2yJncY/Vx328e9YUqI/AAAAAAAAAYA/GkVRbuUALpwvl4IJZqcuhBtjdSbECfNyACLcB/s1600/1icloud.jpg"></a>
<a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-m6EGAoI3iLs/Vx33JKyM7sI/AAAAAAAAAYI/TbAzA7NUTT0Ow4s7XxFbi6m-epapBUQcQCLcB/s1600/2icloud.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-m6EGAoI3iLs/Vx33JKyM7sI/AAAAAAAAAYI/TbAzA7NUTT0Ow4s7XxFbi6m-epapBUQcQCLcB/s1600/2icloud.jpg"></a>
<p>
After that, click the gear icon and Export vCard.
<p>
<a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-xtU2AAOBVYQ/Vx33Xg9R_BI/AAAAAAAAAYM/7P2TEqjixV46eIbKsJSo8LDpQDlyWSxrACLcB/s1600/3icloud.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-xtU2AAOBVYQ/Vx33Xg9R_BI/AAAAAAAAAYM/7P2TEqjixV46eIbKsJSo8LDpQDlyWSxrACLcB/s1600/3icloud.jpg"></a>
<p>
Once the ensuing window opens, select all of your contacts again with Command+A and right-click on any contact. Choose Export vCard, name the vCard, and choose your desired location.
<p>
<p>
Your contacts will download as a VCF file and you can either email it to yourself, or directly import to Google.
</p>
<p>
To do so, log into Google contacts in your browser. On the left hand side you should see the Import contacts… option. Click on it, then Choose file, and navigate to the vCard that you saved from iCloud.
</p>
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-4Sj7_8ZZneM/Vx33qeXuTFI/AAAAAAAAAYU/VCZ9fOntmqER3svwSgM4lPZfbqH0QaInQCLcB/s1600/google.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-4Sj7_8ZZneM/Vx33qeXuTFI/AAAAAAAAAYU/VCZ9fOntmqER3svwSgM4lPZfbqH0QaInQCLcB/s1600/google.jpg"></a>
<p>
If you had a Google account prior to this process, you will notice that your contacts list is now much larger and probably contains duplicates. You may need to spend some time deleting or modifying duplicates manually. Luckily, Google offers a Merge contacts tool which is designed to do the same thing.
</p>
<p>
If you want to try it, click the downward arrow of the More button.
</p>

<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Rmu1wNEJTkI/VyCpxT66qWI/AAAAAAAAAa0/OBjcI6tbiyAJuRjK52lm5UGKdzi_ufeegCLcB/s1600/1st.png" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Rmu1wNEJTkI/VyCpxT66qWI/AAAAAAAAAa0/OBjcI6tbiyAJuRjK52lm5UGKdzi_ufeegCLcB/s1600/1st.png"></a>
</div>
<p>
The drop-down menu gives you the option to Find & merge duplicates. Selecting this option tells Google to automatically search your contacts for duplicates.

<h3>
Move contacts from Android to iPhone
</h3>
<p>
There are two simple ways of transferring contacts from Android to iOS.
</p>
<p>
<b>Option #1</b>
<p>
If you have been using your Android phone and Google account (Gmail, Google Play, etc) for any length of time, the chances are that all of your contacts will be associated with your Google account.
</p>
<p>
Go to Settings on your Android phone and choose "Accounts". Enter your Gmail account details and enable synchronization. Your phone contacts and Google Contacts should now synchronize.
</p>

<p>
If you are one of the 782 million iCloud users, you’re probably using iCloud contacts as well. It is a common issue that you would end up having multiple duplicate contacts on your iOS device and they’ll be synchronized back to iCloud. Do you have multiple entries of the same people with different information in each contact? We have two solutions for you.
</p>
<h3>
Remove duplicate iCloud contacts
</h3>
<p>
1. Open a Contacts app on your iOS device.
</p>

<p>
2. From the Card menu select Look for Duplicates

<p>
3. If duplicate contacts are found, choose to Merge them by clicking the button. Repeat this action until you get 0 duplicates detected.
</p>

<p>
This method is easy but it has its own downsides. While removing iCloud duplicates this way will merge them and sync them back to iCloud, you might skip the whole bunch of duplicates.
</p>
<p>
This would merge multiple contacts with the same name but different numbers/other info. This would <b>not merge duplicates with different names</b>!
</p>
<p>
But what about other duplicates? You can remove them manually. Unless you have a huge address book and want to save time.

<p>If you’re using Gmail contacts and find yourself getting lost in more and more duplicates, Google offers you a way to remove them. It's really easy and we will show you how to do it. </p>
<p>After auto-merging, some Gmail contacts duplicates might be left, and merging them manually could be daunting and take a lot of time if you have many of them. The Mergix web app uses a smart algorithm and will <a href="http://www.mergix.com/merge-google-contacts" target="blank">handle your Gmail contacts duplicates much faster</a>, and you can merge contacts across multiple Google accounts! More than that, it will merge contacts across <a href="http://www.mergix.com/remove-duplicates-from-exchange" target="blank">Exchange</a> and <a href="http://www.mergix.com/icloud-merge-contacts" target="blank">iCloud</a> accounts. </p>
<p>It's also free for one device or service, so it will remove/merge gmail duplicates just fine! </p>
<h3>Removing Duplicate Google Contacts </h3>
<p>First of all we'll show you how to remove duplicate Gmail contacts from Google: </p>
<p>Log in to your Google account and access your Gmail Inbox. On the top left side of the screen click on Gmail with arrow facing down and access your Contacts.</p>
<a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-s_vy1SxjX7w/VwNhEGHGvgI/AAAAAAAAAQc/MTjIqz_E2_k701Q29jMSeB7mgZa-zdCBw/s1600/1st.png" imageanchor="1" target="blank"><img border="0" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-s_vy1SxjX7w/VwNhEGHGvgI/AAAAAAAAAQc/MTjIqz_E2_k701Q29jMSeB7mgZa-zdCBw/s1600/1st.png"></a>
<p>If your dashboard looks like in the picture below, select “Try Contacts preview" on the left side-bar.</p>
<a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-ULw06z1C030/VwNhfy5tMjI/AAAAAAAAAQg/0dfQ4qx39gMGNbQ8Ht6hLkEHSoLcSWoqw/s1600/Google_contacts_preview_old.png" imageanchor="1" target="blank"><img border="0" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-ULw06z1C030/VwNhfy5tMjI/AAAAAAAAAQg/0dfQ4qx39gMGNbQ8Ht6hLkEHSoLcSWoqw/s1600/Google_contacts_preview_old.png"></a>
<p>Then simply tap on “find Duplicates” on the left menu. This view will be displayed: </p>
<a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-HMUWGjwbLCc/VwNh2hRie_I/AAAAAAAAAQo/hikK1d4AkS8mHzcGQw3E7BI_52JuSvdWQ/s1600/allcontactsscreen.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-HMUWGjwbLCc/VwNh2hRie_I/AAAAAAAAAQo/hikK1d4AkS8mHzcGQw3E7BI_52JuSvdWQ/s1600/allcontactsscreen.jpg"></a>
<p>You can merge them all or select specific contacts you want to merge. It’s as easy as that! </p>
<p>Now, Google algorithm might not catch all the duplicates. In this case, you’ll have to select the contacts for manual merging. Select the contacts you want to merge and click on the Merge icon on the top-right</p>
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-nr49BpZWUD8/VwNixPHaS4I/AAAAAAAAAQ0/VciCK5teGKoBx-aHEsIDT9c-hglYZ-ZgA/s1600/merge_gmail_duplicates_manually.png" imageanchor="1" target="blank"><img border="0" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-nr49BpZWUD8/VwNixPHaS4I/AAAAAAAAAQ0/VciCK5teGKoBx-aHEsIDT9c-hglYZ-ZgA/s1600/merge_gmail_duplicates_manually.png"></a>

<p>Let’s face it, Microsoft Outlook is an irreplaceable tool for most of us. It’s an all-in-one tool for business email, calendar, notes and tasks. Even if your Outlook Inbox isn’t loaded with hundreds of messages everyday, it’s just a matter of time when you’ll find yourself getting lost in messy folders. </p>
<p>Eventually you may have to combine various old pst files, import email, contacts and calendar or use synchronization tools. These are only few ways of how you may end up with the big issue – Outlook duplicates. Outlook duplicates are not only inconvenient – it makes it harder for you to navigate your folders. Duplicates, especially in email or contact folders, will take a lot of space and can easily slow down the performance of the program or even make it crash. </p>
<p>We decided to share with you some Outlook duplicates prevention tips and clean-up options. Read further to see how to prevent Outlook from getting cluttered. </p>
<h3><b>5 essential tips to avoid Outlook duplicates </b></h3>
<h3> Synchronization can cause Outlook duplicate contacts and emails </h3>
<p>Synchronization often leads to Outlook email, contacts and calendar duplication. For instance, if you synchronize your PC with a laptop and place email to different folders on both devices.</p>
<p>In other cases, synchronization just happens to be incorrect or interrupted. It's a tricky process and if you want to use synchronization software, you must stick to one tool. If you keep changing the tools, you will end up with more dupes. </p>
<p>If you need a single tool for synchronizing your Outlook contacts, calendar and tasks, with your smartphone or Google, you can try the <a href="http://www.sync2.com/" target="blank">Sync2</a> software. It allows you to try it out for 2 weeks to see how the program works for you.</p>
<h3>Importing information</h3>
<p>Avoid importing information from different sources as they tend to have limited amount of fields. Contacts from Outlook will not be identical to contacts in Google, as Google simply does not have all the fields. </p>
<h3>Prevent Outlook duplicate contacts to appear</h3>
<p>If you want to prevent Outlook duplicate contacts,go to the File tab > Options > Contacts/People. Then select select "Check for Duplicate Contacts When Saving New Contacts" and click OK.
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-6I3CKOMozEU/VvvMaRYJBhI/AAAAAAAAAPo/rrm4cVeVi1wYK0FxQ2S_TewRGS-MlxvpA/s1600/Prevent_outlook_duplicate_contacts.png" imageanchor="1" target="blank"><img border="0" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-6I3CKOMozEU/VvvMaRYJBhI/AAAAAAAAAPo/rrm4cVeVi1wYK0FxQ2S_TewRGS-MlxvpA/s1600/Prevent_outlook_duplicate_contacts.png"></a>
<h3>Avoid multiple accounts and profile recreation</h3>
<p>Avoid re-creating or re-adding email accounts, as they tend to re-download all emails again. When you re-create them after originally setting the option of your Outlook to leave a copy on the server, all the emails will be collected again. This process happens because the new profile isn't aware that all these emails have been received before by the old profile.</p>
<h3>Check Rules to prevent Outlook duplicate email </h3>
<p>You should always check the Rules as this is one of the most common reasons why duplicates appear. Check them to make sure duplicates are not created in the inbox. Also when you set up the "Move to folder" rules, every time you get a new email, Outlook will execute all of them. Make sure that your rules end in "stop processing more rules". </p>
<h3><b>How to effectively remove contact duplicates in Outlook? </b> </h3>
<p>If you're still reading, perhaps you already have your Outlook cluttered and just want to clean it up. Well, the bad thing is that you cannot clean dupes without third party tools, while the new Outlook version will create links between duplicated contacts, they will still be there. For removing Outlook contact duplicates, we encourage you to try Mergix. </p>

There‘s just one thing. By doing that you‘re making them show as one full contact on your iPhone, but not actually removing duplicate contacts from iPhone. Also, this might be a time killer if you have dozens of contacts. Or if you're synchronizing your iPhone with several different mail and other accounts.

<h3>
Is there a way to avoid a cluttered address book?
</h3>
<p>
It's very important to understand how dupes are made. Once you understand where the problem is coming from, you can solve it easily.
</p>
<p>
On you're iPhone you might be using iCloud, iTunes, Gmail to sync your data and your contacts. And you probably have the same people as contacts in different accounts. That's when duplicates start to appear. You might want to check which sources you're syncing your contacts with:
</p>
<p>
Open up iPhone settings app and choose Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
</p>
<p>
You should be able to see the list of all the accounts being synchronized with your iPhone. Simply check which of them say Contacts in the list of used services.
</p>
<p>
We recommend that you sync contacts from one service only, to avoid a big mess and having to delete all those duplicate contacts from your iPhone. But if you wish to keep all of them synchronized or have already messed up your address list, turn to <a href="http://www.mergix.com" target="blank">Mergix</a> for a quick and advanced help.

Link duplicate contacts on Android manually
</h3>
<p>
The downside of this way is being time consuming. It's also a good place for errors. But apart from that, it is so simple. And if you have just a couple of contacts dupes on your Android, that could be the best fit for you.
</p>
<h3>
Here's how it's done:
</h3>
<p>
Open your contacts app, scroll down till you see a couple of duplicate contacts you'd like to merge or remove. Open one of them and look for the More menu (three vertical dots). It looks different on every Android phone and might be right next to the Home button on your screen. Then tap on Link and look for a contact to merge with.
</p>
<div class="several-img">

<p>

</p>
<div class="several-img">

</div>
<p>
As mentioned in the beginning, Android contacts usually multiply because your address book syncs contacts from various different sources. Since every Android phone is slightly different, there's no way to say where exactly you should go to solve this problem, but you should usually start looking within the contacts app.
</p>
<p>
The first thing you can try to look for is the setting, allowing you to show only contacts with phone numbers. That should remove a good part of Android duplicate contacts.
</p>
<p>
Also, for decreasing a chance of having duplicate contacts on Android, look for the Accounts list. You should be able to manually select and deselect accounts that your phone is synchronized with. We recommend that you keep one account only (ex. google).
</p>

If you already have plenty of duplicates and want to easily get rid of them, try <a href="http://www.mergix.com" target="blank">Mergix</a>. It will merge duplicate contacts on your Android for free. Check out the video about how to get started:

<p>
Last week we were excited to <a href="http://www.mergix.com/blog/posts/2016-02-24/introducing-mergix-free-cloud-app-to-remove-duplicate-contacts-on-everywhere" target="blank"><b>introduce you to Mergix</b></a> – a universal cloud app to merge duplicate contacts on all your devices and services. Thousands of customers have already lighten up their address lists. If you’re still not using it, start now! It’s easy, it’s free and you’ll love it. Now it's time to explain how Mergix works. <br>
</p>
<p>
Chances are, you linked email and a bunch of other accounts [<a href="http://www.mergix.com/merge-google-contacts" target="blank"><b>Google</b></a>/<a href="http://www.mergix.com/remove-duplicates-from-exchange" target="blank"><b>Exchange</b></a>/<a href="http://www.mergix.com/icloud-merge-contacts" target="blank"><b>iCloud</b></a>] to your device. The problem begins, when all the data from your apps and linked programs is synchronized with your device. Same people appear on different accounts and once they're synchronized to your devices address book, duplicates are created. This is a huge problem, because the more services you're using, the more cluttered your contact list becomes.

And the worst part is that duplicate contacts will follow you to every new device that you link to all the accounts. Unless you find a solution. There are plenty of apps for that, but they usually work on one device only and don't really solve the problem from its roots. We'll show you how to remove duplicates from the roots.
</p>
<p>
That's where Mergix comes to help. Mergix offers a whole new approach to messy contacts. By cleaning your contact list from the roots – your email accounts and other sources, it keeps your address book(s) clean and up to date everywhere.

</p>
<h3>
Step 1. How to Remove Duplicate Contacts.
</h3>
<p>
Mergix is designed as an <b>advanced duplicate search</b> tool.
</p>
<p>
It does a really good job in deciding which contacts are duplicate contacts or just similar. All duplicates, detected across the accounts, will be presented for manual review. Before removing them out, you will be able to review each of the detected duplicate contacts and select whether to merge them or not. Without any risk to lose important contact information.
</p>
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-QG_CulZmgeo/VuAIK9HKSAI/AAAAAAAAAIw/NA59ZCf7uZc/s1600/merge_duplicate_contacts.png" imageanchor="1" target="blank"><img border="0" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-QG_CulZmgeo/VuAIK9HKSAI/AAAAAAAAAIw/NA59ZCf7uZc/s1600/merge_duplicate_contacts.png"></a>
<p>
Now you can take these actions:
</p>
<ul>
<li>Skip this step – if you prefer to keep duplicated contacts and review them in the similar contacts merge step.</li>
<li>Merge all duplicates. </li>
<li>You can also choose the contacts you don't want to merge for now. You can check them later in the 3rd step.</li>
</ul>
<h3>
Step 2. How to Remove Junk Contacts.
</h3>
<p>
We all have <a href="https://app.mergix.com/webhelp/Content/Search_Process/What_would_it_find.htm" target="blank"><b>incomplete or empty</b></a> contacts in our address books and they are annoying.
</p>
<p>
How does Mergix work? Mergix considers a contact as junk, if it has only one field filled, such as only name, email, number etc. Before removing them, you will be presented with all detected junk contacts and select to remove or keep them.
</p>
<a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-mvdfuKjOhLo/VuAISI9M2QI/AAAAAAAAAI0/oAD1w_s5ssM/s1600/remove_junk_contacts.png" imageanchor="1" target="blank"><img border="0" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-mvdfuKjOhLo/VuAISI9M2QI/AAAAAAAAAI0/oAD1w_s5ssM/s1600/remove_junk_contacts.png"></a>
<h3>
Step 3. How to Merge Duplicate Contacts.
</h3>
<p>
Mergix uses the most advanced technologies <a href="https://app.mergix.com/webhelp/Content/Search_Process/What_would_it_find.htm" target="blank"><b>to find similar contacts</b></a>, containing closely matching or misspelled information and allows you to select whether to merge them or not.
</p>
<p>
This is the last step and here you will be able to manually merge duplicate contacts. Mergix will show you all the doubtful entries, and you'll be able to decide whether to skip them or not.
</p>
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-0hkNfhpWyao/VuAIXqP8hCI/AAAAAAAAAI8/UsaH7DJGxy0/s1600/merge_duplicate_contacts_manually.png" imageanchor="1" target="blank"><img border="0" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-0hkNfhpWyao/VuAIXqP8hCI/AAAAAAAAAI8/UsaH7DJGxy0/s1600/merge_duplicate_contacts_manually.png" target="blank"></a>
<p>
That’s it!
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-7Y4kABIeQK0/VuAIcc3IkbI/AAAAAAAAAJE/yOvO_Y0s3is/s1600/final_report.png" imageanchor="1" target="blank"><img border="0" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-7Y4kABIeQK0/VuAIcc3IkbI/AAAAAAAAAJE/yOvO_Y0s3is/s1600/final_report.png" target="blank"></a>
Now duplicate contacts are merged across all your accounts. Now, if synchronization is enabled on your device, all updates will be synchronized automatically. You end up with an address book containing full information. Once all the sources are clean, you can check your devices address book. If any duplicates are left, simply delete them by using your devices feature.
</p>
<p>
You can merge duplicates on one device for free or choose the <a href="http://www.mergix.com/pricing" target="blank">Premium</a> subscription and clean up all your devices using all of the advance options.
</p>
<p>
Just make sure to bookmark your <a href="http://www.mergix.com" target="blank">mergix.com</a> account, so you’ll always have it handy when you want to do a little cleaning.
