Google Contacts can now be synced with contacts saved on the phone because of the new thanks

One of the oldest applications of Google contacts, however, many of its updates do not generate much interest from users. From time to time, however, you get it such important matters It is noteworthy, as happened when they adopted the Material Theming interface or when, finally, they added the expected black mode.

Recently, in addition, it was introduced that it is possible to find contacts we did not keep in the contact list itself. With the last renewal, can now be synchronized with the contacts we have stored on the internal mobile memory and allows you to back up.

Synchronization and backup

The Google Contacts service is especially important when we need it Sync contacts with a Google account to make sure we don't lose them. Until now, however, it was not possible to make a backup copy of the information stored in the internal memory of the device, which is when the contacts end up in many cases thanks to other manufacturers' applications.

How to sync your Android and Instagram contacts

In Pixel, for example, it's not possible to keep contacts in internal storage for the first time, but instead, it forces us to keep a new login in one of your accounts we got on the phone. However, on third-party mobile phones, there is an option to keep a new contact on the device, either through Google Contacts or another manufacturer's app.

The app automatically reads and syncs the contacts stored on the device, but does not affect the contacts stored on the SIM card or other cloud services.

At the end of last year, the contacts program added the option to move contacts from external phone storage to a Google account (on the contrary) without having to make full export or import. Now, a step has passed and we have added a new feature that allows the app automatically read and sync your saved contacts

Not only that, it also gives us the option of backup (i.e., does not affect the contacts stored on the SIM card or other cloud services).

New feature has started appearing in version 3.18.1.295716224 for this application, but its availability will depend on each call because it is server-side analysis. For Android Police, when the app opens on the Galaxy S10 +, a new pop-up window is just asking if they want to sync contacts with that device, but the OnePlus 7T Pro with the same version of the app only allows them to move contacts account users from Google to internal memory.
