What is Reddit's opinion of Contacts?

Yes, it is possible.

First sign out of your mother's account from your phone. This way, it will most likely remove all her contacts from your phone. Problem solved. BUT if those contacts have synced with your account as you said it does sync every day then there needs to be manual work.

Open this site, it is Google official contacts page. Open it in a browser on computer or phone OR install the contacts application from play store.

Google Contacts

Contacts Play Store

Now you can select multiple contacts and delete them from your account.

Just tried the Google Contacts link and it's giving the same error for me as well.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.contacts

If you have the Contacts app by Google and Android 7.1 or above, you can long press on the app icon and drag out the 'Add contact' shortcut for easy access to what you are wanting.

Ok. So can you install the Google contacts app? Do you now have two contracts apps installed? What about the Google clock app?

Maybe you have duplicates in your contact list, or have two contact lists on two Google accounts merged when you do a search. It's easier to check this on the Google Contacts web app on your desktop browser.

It's not what is causing your Dialer bug though.

The OnePlus Contacts app is the one natively embedded in your phone on Nougat. The "official" Google Contacts app, which is used on the Pixel phones, is not available for the OnePlus phones but you can find and download the apk anyway (just don't disable the OnePlus Contacts app).

It uses labels like Gmail and I think the UI is better.

Here is the link of Google Contacts on the play store : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.contacts&hl=fr&referrer=utm_source%3Dgoogle%26utm_medium%3Dorganic%26utm_term%3Dgoogle+contacts+android&pcampaignid=APPU_1_fL9sWKLXLoG4Ua_ngbAC

http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/google-contacts/google-contacts-1-4-22-release/google-contacts-1-4-22-android-apk-download/#description

pretty sure it's that.. is not that then try this

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.contacts

Usually, apps that don't sync to Google don't do so because they want you to sync with their own service and get wrapped up in their ecosystem of apps, making you more likely to stick to their devices. I know Google's own Contacts app automatically keeps everything in sync without having to do it manually or jump through any weird hoops to get it to work.

You didn't mention what phone/app you're using, but chances are, yours has Google integration as well. There may be option in the settings to enable sync or to create a Phone Contact vs creating a Google contact.

Works perfectly on LG G3 (D855) w/ stock MM - any word on the Contacts app coming too?

Edit: NM, it's here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.contacts - sadly won't download from the store on my G3, but I'll grab the apk ;)

Edit 2: APKMirror for above.

That'd be exactly what I'm looking for! Except my Aquaris 5 HD only goes up to Jellybean, and the contacts app is quite poor.

I'm assuming this is the app you have? It says it's not compatible with my phone, sadly.

How about install another launcher like Microsoft Launcher etc.

If that didn't work, try to install 'contact' app like this one by Google https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.contacts

Every phone comes with a contacts app, the most common on Android being Google Contacts. Is there specific functionality you are looking for that basic contacts apps do not have?

Hi 👋

For deleting spam read-only contacts, Install Google Contacts from Play Store:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.contacts

I tested this way now.

Be successful.

All links and details are safe.

This probably isn't a solution you're looking for, but Samsung's contacts apps are notoriously buggy. To verify the problem is with the app, I'd try using Google Contacts and see if it happens there.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.contacts

Also try clearing the app's cache if you haven't already.

yes, so the contacts not syncing in google voice is a known issue that is yet unresolved. to get save contacts to a smartphone app can be used https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.contacts&hl=en_US

the other option is to use a keyword to separate your contacts, especially if you have rotating contacts like students' contacts that would change year-to-year. immediately beneath last name there is a "company" field that you can enter a simple keyword like 2019 or 2020. when you search contacts, enter the keywords and all the contacts with those keywords pop up.

If you can, disable the contacts app and the messaging app

Then I would install Google Contacts and make that your default contacts app, and Android Messages for texting.

As far as the dialer, I don't think you can switch that to another app unless you root.

Che telefono hai? La "schermata" che vedi è diversa perché stai usando e l'applicazione "contatti" del tuo produttore e probabilmente non ha questa funzione.

Questa è l'app contatti di Google,con questa puoi bloccar la tizia al 100% (e ti difendi in automatico dalle chiamate dei call center)

You can download Google's contact manager and use it by default instead of Samsung's. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.contacts

All I'm saying is that you didn't provide us any useful arguments for us to begin a conversation.

Samsung phones don't use the proper Google contacts app to my knowledge, they use their own badly made app (there's a theme here.) It's why I'd never encourage anyone to buy a Samsung phone, the software they force onto Android is atrocious. Go with a Pixel or a OnePlus or a Nokia and you'll get the stock Android experience, which is very well put together.

If it's not installed already I'd recommend trying https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.contacts

Glad you got it figured out, I do wonder if you installed Google's Contact app if you could change them in there.

Well... don't get me started on Samsung's version of android, (link to rant)

Ok, mi segno il video e stasera ci provo e nel caso ti contatto!

EDIT:

> Nel caso non avessi queste voci nell'app Contatti, allora scarica quella presente nel Play Store: li dovrebbe esserci.

Ho visto il video e non mi pare ci fossero quelle opzioni ieri sera. Quindi scarico questa e tolgo quella che già c'è? Perché ieri l'ho aggiornata ma non è uscito niente di nuovo.

You will get used to it with time. Not to mention those things have barely changed from Marshmallow to Nougat. At least on the stock side of things.

Also for Contacts and Gallery, here and here.

Unless your OEM has disabled sync (Samsung) by default, it should immediately sync them.

Use the standard contacts app if you want to be sure: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.contacts

For what it's worth, here is the link to the Contacts app on the Play Store. If you're able to update or install from there, you should be good to go. I'm not sure how the Play Store handles apps across different regions, though, so if for some reason that link doesn't work, you can use the apkmirror link above to get the same update.

Is there a way in your Contacts app to export the contacts? It looks like the ones without the letter icon may be stored locally accessible to your Contacts app only and not to your Google Account. You can usually export your contacts into vcard/vcf files or share them across Contact apps.

You can try installing the Google Contacts app, as that can import vcf files and will sync them to the cloud.

Contacts too

Die Google Kontakte-App kannst du dann probieren, die Zeigt das an.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.contacts

If you check the app in the Play store you can see the person's pic in the upper right of the sample screen:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.contacts

Try the Google Contact App. It has a block function. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.contacts

Google Contacts app does the trick.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.contacts

Yes! And fortunately it's not exclusive to Pixel devices anymore.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.contacts

Hopefully Google Dialer is the next.

I can recommend the google contacts app here you will be on the safer side as it is updated by google

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.contacts

did you install the Google Contacts app on your phone?

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.contacts

Export contacts Vcf

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.contacts

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.dialer

Did you add your work contacts in Google Contacts? It should help them being recognized as legitimate contacts.

Mine is just a photo of a person.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.contacts

Google's Contacts app is the one I use and it's enough for me. Consistent design and also does suggestions for duplicates.

Google Contacts works for me. Does what you're asking for.

If it is still clean of google apps this short guide should help to start. Install Google Installer 3.0 from that site.

https://xiaomiadvices.com/google-installer-30-download-xiaomi-miui-phones-apk/

But i have no idea if it is possible to get Play Protect certification. For now i see no detrimental effect of having no Play Protect certified Device. Google Play Store is working and installing apps. Does someone know of way to get Play Protect certification?

For me there were a few additional steps neccesary:

Afterwards I still had to manually install the newest version of contacts sync and calendar sync

https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/google-contacts-sync/

https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/google-calendar-sync/

and their respective google apps from the playstore.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.contacts

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.calendar

without that i haven't got syncs of contacts and calendar in the Account sync.

Next step allowing the google apps to run in the background (Maybe not every app needed but i am not seeing much extra battery usage)

(MIUI11) Go to Settings - Apps - Manage Apps

For "Google Play Service", "Google Play Store", "Google Services Framework", "Hangouts", "Maps", "Google Account Manager", "Google Calendar Sync", "Google Contacts Sync"

- Enable "Autostart"

- enable/accept all Permissions

- for Get location info set to "Always allow"

- Battery saver if available set to "No restrictions"

Still missing the "your timeline" function in Google Maps. Seems like that is disabled on chinese phones. At every location i am seeing "Not available in [your Country]" (Tested in an Asian and an European country. Older Android phone had no problem)

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.contacts

You should be able to import individual contacts with Google Contacts.

Have you tried using this app? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.contacts

Also, have you tried nicknames? "Text my wife" "send a Hangouts message to my dad"

Check for updates or remove and re-add their Google Accounts.

Have you tried the contacts app by Google?

on the play store, it says the app isn't compatible with the Note 7? how is that possible? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.contacts
