I accidentally merged two different people in one contact. Can I undo this?
We don't currently support the option to undo a merge but this is definitely on our radar! In the meantime, a workaround is to manually separate your contacts by editing the contact, removing the information of one person and keeping the other, then creating a new contact for the removed information.
For example:
If John Doe and Jane Doe were merged, identify whose information is on the merged contact, and for this example, let's say it's John's. Create a new contact for Jane and remove Jane's information from John's contact card. Edit Jane's card and add the removed information from John under Sources.
