Delete an online account from Contacts
If you synchronise contacts with an online account, deleting the account
from Contacts stops synchronisation of contacts only—if you also sync
email or calendar events with that online account, those continue to
synchronise. Deleting the account from Contacts also deletes the
associated contact entries from your smartphone only. The entries are not
deleted from the online account.

Send contacts
You can send all contacts to a hands-free car kit (with Bluetooth) or send a
contact using multimedia messaging (MMS) or email.
To send all contacts to a car kit, first ensure that your car kit can be
detected by your smartphone (see
Connect with a paired device
). Basic
contact information, such as first name, last name and phone number are
always sent to all car kits. If a car kit requests it, other contact information
may be sent, such as address, company name, email address, URL, notes
and images.
Linked contacts are sent to a car kit as a single contact. For example, if
you have one phone number in your Google contacts for Emily Weeks
and another in your Exchange contacts, and you have linked them on
your smartphone, a single Emily Weeks contact with two phone numbers
is sent to the car kit.
