Option to separate contacts by account so they are not combined. That way we can keep personal separate from work.

I have two email accounts (one an exchange account and my personal Gmail account being managed in this app. When I use the Contacts it shows the contacts from both accounts - basically showing contacts in duplicate. It would be helpful if you could select contacts from only one account as opposed to both.

It would be nice to have a selection menu in "People" tab, just like "Calendar" tab, to select which email account set of people to be seen. The contacts in "People" looks like not refresh after amendment made in related email account.

It would be nice to have selective sync but for me it is essential that I am able to choose which account to display contacts from - not a merged list, inexplicably not sorted by surname !

Run an option to detect duplicates and merge contact information

It seems that if you have more than one account on the app, and those accounts happen to have the same Contact list, then the Contacts are duplicated. We need a way to specify a Default Contact List, even when in an "All Mail" mode.

I would like to see the outlook contacts to link with the phone contacts I already have.

Please add the functionality of linking so I don't have to look at multiple entries for the same contact.

In Office 365 for business and in Outlook on Windows we have 2 x Contact folders that are published as Outlook calendars. Contacts from both of these are picked up by all ActiveSync products fine including Apple Mail. Outlook for IOS only picks up the one Contacts folder for populating its People function. This is unacceptable, please fix.

The ability to turn on and off contacts for each email account, it's so frustrating when you have duplicate contacts because different email accounts have your contacts syncing..
App would be perfect if that was available...

I can see contacts from different accounts in contact secrion. It would be much better if it were possible to sync contacts from only one email account, not from all of them. Thank you.

Right now the contact list is a combined list of contacts from my work and personal email accounts. I need to be able to see them by account. I work for govt agency and can't combine the personal and work contacts. I have some people in both lists, different numbers and emails and I can't tell which one I'm sending to. Right now they just show up twice. You break out viewing emails by account and calendars. I need the American with the contact lists.

There should be an option per account to choose if contacts should be synced or not.
For example: I don't use nor maintain the contact list on one of my gmail accounts so I don't want contacts from that account in this app.
It should also be possible to choose to only use the iCloud contact list.

In my account online my contacts are properly linked together. in the outlook app, all my contacts that are linked show up as separate entries.
