Delete contact option missing

The delete contact option is missing in my contacts list on my iPhone 12. The options given are Send Message, Share Contact, Add to Favorites, Add to Emergency Contacts, Stop Sharing My Location, Block this caller. This is true for all my contacts.

Hey there,


did you try this steps to delete a contact?

  1. From the Home screen, open the “Contacts” app.
  2. Choose the contact you wish to get rid of.
  3. Tap “Edit“.
  4. Scroll all the way down and tap “Delete Contact“.

If you don't see the delete button, be sure to turn off the screen time.

If you still can't see that button, let me know.
