Proposal
The developer of Simple contact has done a really great job. This app has really helped me manage my contact list. I will just like to add my contribution to the app by suggesting that the app should also include the following options;
Delete Duplicate Contacts Options: True to the name, The app has been simple and easy to use. On my contact list I have multiple duplicate contact, selecting multiple contacts manually is exhausting and time taking. Personally I have over a thousand contact most of which are duplicates. Some numbers has over five duplicate. Selecting to delete this contact manually even in simple contact app is time taking and tideous. With delete duplicate option, it makes the taskfaster and easier to use.
Merge Contact: Sometimes some contacts are saved with the same contact name, for example, a friend with 2 different phone contact can be saved twice with the same. With the merge features, users can easily merge this contact under one name.
Mockups / Examples

Benefits
Adding the delete and merge option as a feature to simple contact will make sanitizing users contact easier and faster. Having this features in simple contact will make the app user friendly.
It will also contribute to the way users makes use of the app because of the ease of use and smart behavior.
