How do I eliminate Facebook friends from iPhone contacts? - Joshua Joy - 05-06-2013 07:30 PM

I have iPhone 5 with current software (iOS 6.0.2). Everything I have read tells me to go to settings, scroll down and click Facebook, scroll down to the option that says "allow these apps to use your account" and move the "contacts" slider to off. I did that, but it doesn't work. My contacts are still full of Facebook friends, some of which I have never even heard of and others that are literally people's pets. Am I missing something, or am I really going to have to manually delete every single one?

Accessing the popular social networking site Facebook through the iPhone is achieved easily through the iPhone's free application available from the App Store. Facebook also ties in closely with your cell phone by providing free SMS text messages to keep you updated with your account. The address books on Facebook and on the iPhone can be synchronized through the Facebook app to share current profile images and contact data from your friends' accounts.
