Contact Search Function

Lately, when i am searching for a contact on either my iPhone or ipad nothing happens. It ‘seems’ like the entire system is stuck or not searching. Eventually search functionality comes back after a few minutes…sometimes. Is anyone else experiencing this issue?

What is your default Contacts account? If none, please add an email account and enable contacts.


See the pic below



Unlike some Android devices, contacts are neither stored locally on an iPhone nor in SIM. They are synced to an email account that you had Google, iCloud, AOL, Exchange, Outlook, Yahoo or any Other



If you have a corporate email account added through a profile on your device, please check with your organization's system administrator.
