Sort contacts
Can I sort some of my contacts by company name even if I have a contact person name on that company in that contact, while keeping my friends and family as sorted by name and/or is it automatic?

Hi Kgrug6,
Seems it is automatic:
you can only order Contacts either by "First Name" or "Last Name" on iPhone.
You can choose which word you put, (First or Last) (eg: choose to put Name or Company Name or both ? ) so it suits you
Also you can make (eg:) family members (or certain Companies) "Favourites".

How to add a Favorite (Eg: in iOS15)
You can add VIP contacts to your Favorites list for quick dialing.
Select a contact, scroll down, then tap Add to Favorites.
NB: Calls from these contacts bypass Do Not Disturb (see Turn a Focus on or off on iPhone).

Tap Groups, then select the groups you want to see.
This button appears only if you have more than one source of contacts.
