How to Delete an Obsolete Email from a Contact

[Susanbee749]

Honestly, this shouldn't be this frigging difficult. All I want to do is to update the email address for a contact. The person's email address has changed but the phone # is the same. Is it really necessary to delete the whole contact and re-enter everything? When I bring up the contact and click on the pencil icon to edit it, it doesn't even show the old email address. It allows me to add a new one, but the old one is still there.
Help!!

Are you familiar with copy / paste on Android?
Long press on the new email address, choose copy, open your contacts app, choose edit, scroll to the existing email address, long press, and paste, then save

Where does the old email address show up? If it's in the gmail app then that's not connected to your contacts app and do you'd have to delete it using gmail and not contacts.

OK heres the deal. Go to contact tap Edit, then at the very top of the screen if there is two (2) "Google" !!!!!! Edit the one on the right also!!!!
This is how to get rid of old numbers too with multiple gmail accounts

I see have been missed.
