FB contacts in WP8.1 phonebook


Recommended Posts

Did anybody else notice that the phonebook doesn't sync with the people app anymore

 

In the People app settings I select to only show contact from Outlook and Skype

When you check the People app, as expected, you only see contact from outlook and Skype

 

When you go to the phonebook, I see all FB contacts that share their phonenr through FB.

 

This can't be expected behavior. I have no need to have every FB contact in my phonebook

 

Is there anybody who can explain this to me?

I have my FB and Skype linked to my MS account, this is all set up correctly

My settings are perfectly represented in the People app,it just screws it all up in the phonebook

I checked that, the contacts that show up in the phonebook only have a FB contact, no links to Skype or Outlook and they are not doubles

That was the first thing that popped in my head, but no luck with that

Go into people and at the top you have

 

contacts

showing contacts with phone numbers

 

click on contacts with phone numbers and add you will see Facebook and Twitter.

 

It looks like its switched off by default.

I checked these settings, they are all correct. The only thing where it goes wrong is when I look at my contacts going through the phonebook.

That's when all of a sudden all my FB contacts with a phonenr are added to my list.

In the people app the are not showing up as expected

Yea I get the same thing. Might have to report it to Microsoft so they can fix that

 

That's what i'm trying to figure out.

It doesn't seem like wanted behavior.

Sorry I forgot the big option that says hide contacts without phone numbers that will show everything.

 

 

Just noticed that some details are missing from some contacts.
