Using the Keep In Touch Page
The Keep In Touch page gives you the option to set a frequency for all your contacts easily.
To get started, simply drag and drop the contacts to their corresponding frequency
You can also set a frequency by Group by clicking on 
 and selecting the Group you want to manage.
Note: If you notice this alert when dragging a contact to a different frequency, this means your last interaction with that contact is overdue.
To address this, you can update your last interaction.
Using the Quick Action Page
After setup, you can now quickly take action with the quick action feature:
Set keep-in-touch 🤝
Quickly update fields 🖊
Archive unwanted contacts 🗄️
Using Merge and Fix
We've made merging contacts much faster. After import, you can go to our new Merge & Fix page that merges contacts imported across different sources.
From the Merge & Fix page, view all the possible duplicates that Dex can find.  We currently search duplicates based on:
Full name
Email
Phone
In addition, we ensure that each set of duplicates does not have different Linkedin, Facebook, and Twitter profiles (or they'd belong to different people).  We also ensure that for each duplicate, at least one contact is not an archived contact.
Caution: Merge and Fix is not reversible
Using the Locations page
We've added a page that allows you to organize and view your contacts by location through a simple drag-and-drop!
From this page, you can do the following:
Assign a location to contact by dragging and dropping.
Add a new location
Filter contacts by "Contacts without location" or "Contacts (all)"
