add contact option not available from info icon in messages app

When I get a text from a number not in my contacts and want to add them, I used to be able to click the "i" info icon and then "Create new contact" but that option is no longer available. How can I fix this to easily add people to my contacts without having to write the number down and then switch apps to create a new contact? Thanks!

Click on the arrow at the far right of the phone number, next to the little phone icon (just under the word "Done"). That will take you to the screen where you can add the number.
