Any help that can be given to eliminate the duplication of contacts on the phone would be appreciated. I have about 3000 contacts, many with numerous phone numbers, the result is quite a mess. So bad I had to remove waze from my contacts list. I like Waze, but the contacts issue is a major problem for me.

Removing Waze from the accounts list seems to be the only real solution, SmartMerge and similar apps don't seem to really fix it.
