As we all know that, First In all ios , we can find contacts using spotlight search. But in ios9 it not help us to find contacts using spotlight search feature. Yes it finds birthdates, events, messages and mails of that contact name which we searching but if these details not filled in any contact by us then we can't be able to search that contact using spotlight.
iPhone 5c, iOS 9
Agreed. Issue is not resolved in 9.0.1.
This is pathetic... And not expected by Apple !!!
Have you made sure that contacts are "on" in settings/general/spotlight search? There are a couple dozen different things that you can tell it to include or not in a search.
Yes. The issue is that Contact names will show one moment in Spotlight Search and then the next time I look for them, no Contact names appear.
Then--usually after an email has arrived in the Inbox (I have no idea why it's related, but it is)--the names will appear when i do a Spotlight Search a bit later.
I have the same problem. Tried all the of the tips in this thread, and the many others poping up...
I have a 6Plus with iOS 9.01 and it works fine on that phone.
I have a 6s with iOS 9.01 and it does not work at all.
STILL BROKEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I agree. In fact, it seems to be worse. Now, I almost never find a contact listed in spotlight search.
yup. spotlight searches are worthless. still broken
Open Contacts, select Groups and change settings to different and back and save it. It helps me. I can search my contacts again.
Eureka! This solution worked for me. Thanks!!!
Great job Michael thanks it was so annoying use voice command seeing it in the search window...then "No Results" you should be working for Apple...;)
