Hi Laineymac,


We understand that you've lost your contacts after setting up your iPhone. When transferring your data did you use the Move app? Details about this can be found here: Move from Android to iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch


If contacts are stored to your email account, you can add the email address to your iPhone and enable the contacts. Instructions can be found here: Add an email account to your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch


Have a great day!
