Missing contact list from Yahoo mail account - How can I import them back into my iphone?

For some reason my Yahoo mail account would no longer connect to my iPhone 6 plus mail. Using one of the troubleshooting options, which was delete and reinstall the Yahoo mail account on my iPhone... problems occurred. Going to: "Settings/Passwords & Accounts/Add Account" the "Yahoo!" set up option did not work. (From what I've read this is an ongoing problem.) Although I was later able to connect to my Yahoo mail using the "Other" option, all my contacts are missing. And there is no toggle option in the account to turn on contacts. (Guessing if the Yahoo option was fixed this wouldn't have happened.) Toggle options are only "mail" and "notes". How can I import them back into my iphone?


FYI: They are not backed up in iCloud, but are still in Yahoo Mail via laptop.

You contact yahoo and ask them, since you set it up using other.


Contacts aren't part of the backups.
