Last update makes my contact names disappear

The last update makes my contact names disappear when they text/call me or I text/call them! Then I have to remember to edit/save their name to the phone number right then so I don’t lose the name any longer. Very annoying and disruptive! I can’t stand it!

iPhone 11, iOS 14

Contacts are neither stored locally on an iPhone nor in SIM. They are synced to an email account that you had Google, iCloud, AOL, Exchange, Outlook, Yahoo or any Other


If Contacts on iCloud, try this --> Restore contacts, calendars, bookmarks and more using ...


  1. How many Contacts account (email client server) you have?
  2. What is your default Contacts Account?
  3. Which email account you are using to store Contacts?


  • See the GIF below for Contacts and Default Account



  • Learn how to add an email account and make it default (Watch the GIF)
  • This example is for Gmail but the process remains same for all Google, iCloud, AOL, Exchange, Outlook, Yahoo or any Other
