New Contact created from a Recent Call does not actually appear in my Contacts List...

I created a New Contact from a phone number in my Recents list. The Contact does not appear in my Contacts list. The Recents list updated to show the name of the Contact I created. If I Edit the contact and add it to Favorites, the Favorites list shows the name. If I dial the number via the Keypad it associates the number with the contact. But this contact still doesnot appear in the actual Contacts list.


I tried rebooting the phone.


Suggestions?

iPhone 6, iOS 8.3

I think I found the answer. (At least, this resolved it for me.) When I go into Contacts, there's a Groups button in the upper left corner. When I go to Groups I have "All iCloud" and "All Yahoo". Perviously, I had "All iCloud" checked but "All Yahoo" unchecked. With both of these checked, now my Contacts list does show the Contacts created from and and all Recents (calls txts etc.)

Also the header in the Contacts list becomes "All Contacts" instead of "Contacts".
