If the administrator allows updates from social media in the admin groupware settings,
users can also retrieve contact pictures directly from social networks.
In that case the contact needs to have stored a user name in the social media section.
Each entry of a supported social network adds a download entry for the respective
network. Currently, the following social networks are supported:

- Instagram
- Mastodon
- Tumblr
- Diaspora
- Xing
- Telegram
- Gravatar

Social avatars are only retrieved if publicly available without login to the
respective social network. In the contact user settings on the contacts page,
you can activate auto-updates from social media. This will update avatars
with social profile data on a weekly basis. Social networks are checked in the
order listed above.
