Communication

Adding Contacts

You can add contacts on your phone and synchronize them with the
contacts in your Google™ Account, Microsoft Exchange account, or other
accounts that support syncing contacts.

Since your contacts can come from a variety of sources, the Contacts
application attempts to join new information with existing similar contact
entries, to create a single entry. You can also manage that process manually
by joining or splitting entries.

To add a new contact

1. Open the Contacts application.

2. Tap the New contact icon

to the right of the search box.

3. If you have more than one account with contacts, select the account

where you want to save the contact.

NOTE

To change the account later, edit the entry, tap

at the top of the screen, then tap the

account you want it assigned to.

4. Enter the contact’s name.

5. Tap a category of contact information, such as phone number or email

address, to enter that kind of information about your contact.

6. Tap a category’s Add new icon

to add more than one entry for that

category. For example, in the phone number category, enter a work
number and add a home number. Tap the label field to the right of the
entered information to open a drop-down menu of preset labels. For
example, HOME or WORK for a phone number.

7. Tap the Picture frame icon

to select a picture to display next to the

name in your list of contacts and in other applications.

8. Tap Add another field

at the bottom of the screen to add additional

fields including Organization, IM, Notes, Nickname, Website, Events,
and Relationship.

NOTE

You can also set the color of the notification LED for the contact.

9. When you’re finished, tap Save.
