I cannot add a phone number to contacts on my Iphone 15 plus

My new iPhone 15 Plus does not give me any option to add a contact from messages.

The info button is there but nothing else other than “call” or “message”.

I can’t even copy the number to create a new contact.

iPhone 15 Plus, iOS 17

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

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.
