2.4 Working with Contacts
Bria uses contacts saved on your device. Bria’s contacts are continually synchronized with your native
contacts; adding, modifying or deleting a contact from one list updates the other list.
On iOS, you can set up multiple sources for contacts (for example, iCloud, Gmail, Exchange, Facebook) and
merge all into the native contact app. If you do this, you can access all contacts on Bria as well.
Updating Unified Contacts
When multiple entries are merged into one entry on iOS, modifying a contact within Bria updates all the contact
sources. For example, if you have set up the contacts from iCloud, Gmail, and Exchange and link three entries
as one entry on iOS, you will see one single contact on Bria, with unified information from three sources.
Editing this contact on Bria updates all three sources of iCloud, Gmail, and Exchange. If you want to update
only one source (such as iCloud), use the native Contacts app.
Facebook Contacts
If a Facebook account is connected on the device, Bria shows the most recent post of your Facebook friends on
the Contact details page, as well as in-call screen when you are in a call with this friend.
The following shows how to merge Facebook contacts and view the posts of your friends on Bria.
