Unsure how duplicate detection works
Insufficient details on how duplicate detection works. Only mentions that when similar name detected, users will be warned. However there was no such detection.
"Possible duplicate contacts:" only shows up when editing anything but name

[This is the team's response to the above 'original' bug]
Agreed that this is an issue. Low because most users would not have to look into the specifics of near-match duplicate detection, given the app still allows users to add near-match duplicates. Additionally, this situation is not common.

:question: Issue duplicate status
Team chose to mark this issue as a duplicate of another issue (as explained in the Team's response above)
Reason for disagreement: [replace this with your explanation]
I realized that after I did an
edit
command, there is one line that is not explained in the UG.Possible duplicate contacts: JohnDoe
It seems that the application is able to detect potential duplicates. The UG does not explain how this being achieved.If this is intended as a way to remind users of any potential duplicates, it should also list
Johnoe
who has the same phone number and email asJohnDoe
, both of which are potential duplicates. Similarly,JohnnDoe
is also a potential duplicate, but it is not detected either. In this case, a legitimate user behavior might not be well considered enough.
