How to update preferred line for multiple contacts

I have a physical SIM and an e-SIM on my iPhone 12 Pro Max. I sync my personal and business contacts to my phone using my iCloud account. Is there a way I can update massively some of the contacts to use my e-SIM and some of them to use my physical SIM as it's preferred line, like do a bulk update? I really don't want to have to go through 200 contacts 1-by-1 and update them manually.

iPhone 12 Pro Max, iOS 15

Hi there AlexDG83,


Thank you for posting in the Apple Support Communities. We saw your question about editing multiple contacts, and we'd like to provide answer. For reference, this link covers how to Edit contacts on iPhone, including for Dual SIM.


Since this detail is edited in the entry for the individual contact, there's not a way to do a bulk change for this. However, you can always send your suggestion directly to Apple using this link: Product Feedback


Kind regards.
