Infinite loop - Contacts app repeats request for Google passwords on iPhone 13

When I try to add a new Contact to my iPhone 13 Pro Max, I get an infinite loop of Contacts demanding that I log into my various Google accounts. Has anyone else experienced this? How can I fix this?

Hello ed-k47,


Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. Make sure that you're successfully signed in to the Gmail accounts that you want to use with your contacts and that Contacts have been enabled for the appropriate accounts.

the problem persisted many times after resets — I even tried to reset my phone to factory and restore from a backup.


I deleted and reinstalled Google apps and accounts, turned them off and on, and eventually fidgeted it to normal behavior


can’t give you a repeatable procedure to fix of anyone else experienced this problem
