Phone Contact

iphone 13 Pro. The contacts to find a phone number defaults to All Contacts, which includes my gmail contacts, so the list has a bunch of emails in between the names of my phone contacts. I want it to default to my iCloud, that is just my phone contacts. Is there a way to do that?

Hello coleary1500,


Thank you for reaching out in Apple Support Communities. You can set a default account for contacts in iCloud by following these steps:


Choose a default account to add new contacts
If you set up multiple accounts in the Contacts app, you can choose a default account to add new contacts to:

1. Go to Settings > Contacts > Default Account.
2. Choose an account.

An iPhone showing the Default Account screen 

Following steps can help and is outlined in this article: Manage and delete contacts on your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support


Kind regards.
