Hi Guys

In a nutshell, I have added a gmail and outlook account on my account - with contacts being synced to phone.

I want to now remove these accounts, however it warns that contact data will be removed if I do so.

How do I make it that, all of the contacts are changed into iOS contacts, or are attached to my iOS account, so that un-syncing Gmail/Outlook does not result in loss of contacts?

Thank you :)
[doublepost=1477413373][/doublepost]Ok I found a work-around.

Downloaded app "Backup Contacts", made a backup. Un-sync'd Gmail and Outlook - and redownloaded/merged contacts.

Simples ;).
