Error saving new contact iPhone 8 Plus IOS 11.2.6

If I get a message from a contact not in my address book and then try to add them as a new contact I get an error and the new contact screen is greyed out and will not allow me to save. The new contact screen is blank and I have to copy the number and go to contacts and save as a new contact that way. Is this normal?

HELP!! Lost contact Info on iPhone since latest update How do I fix my phone? My phone was working perfectly until the latest update. The errors started immediately after the update was installed. I receive text messages from contacts existing in my contact list and then their information disappears and only a number shows up. I go into my contact list to send a text to an existing contact. They respond and their contact info is then deleted and only a number appears.. I have lost names, phone numbers, addresses, birthdates, and important notes under the contacts. This is extremely frustrating!!! My iphone is less than a year old.. please help!!!!

Iphone xs max not saving contact Hi I have an Iphone XS max and it wont save a contact. When I save the contact through the messages app it will save and pop up on the messages until i close the app out. When i open it again, the letter that the contact begins with pops up where a picture should go, but the name doesn’t pop up, just the phone number. It does save in the contacts though.
