Dear Friends
Good day !
I'm using couple of iPhones, iPad etc.
All linked to the same iCloud account and all using legit iOS
Over the years, using google, iCloud etc to migrate contacts from older phones to new ones has landed me in a situation where many of my contacts have duplicates and triplicates (not all are duplicated, but many are)
These duplicates can be found on iCloud as well (not the situation where ONLY Mac / phone has duplicates) but duplicates in iCloud contacts as well (logged in thru browser and checked)
I *do NOT want to use third party apps* to merge my contacts. I am NOT sure if they will steal my contacts or misuse them
I know I can open one contact at a time and merge it with a similar contact on my iPhone , but that is very tiring and time consuming
So, friends, is there an easier way out ?
are there any *apple apps* or *apple settings* to handle this ?
...and the next question is , how to download the cleared / non duplicate contacts to an XL sheet or CSV file
thanks in advance
best regards
Subu
