Feature description

Hi, I'm currently trying out the Contacts app. I would be happy if groups with the same name could be merged in the Groups tab in the same way as in the individual contacts.

Why do you want this feature?

The contacts are now divided into several groups with the same name. If I want to view the contacts in a group, I always have to look in two (or more) groups. This is cumbersome and confusing.

    Hi, may I ask, if you could figure out, if it would be possible to add this functionality?

    Hi, I'd like to ask again, if you could already figure out my request?

    This feature would be nice. I don't see the possibility to suppress a group either. It would have been a work around.
