Issue with Contacts after installing 27 and 27.2

Hello. I'm using an iPhone 15 Pro. I've had issues accessing my contacts since I installed 27.0, and now with 27.2. I was hoping they fixed those bugs, but it's still moving very slowly. I type in a name in contacts, and it takes about 30 seconds to populate similar names from the address book. Very frustrating. Does anyone else have the same experience? Any ideas and suggestions welcomed.

Thank you,

Guy

If you hve more than one email address in Settings, Apps, Mail, make sure that only one has Contacts toggled on - the one where your contacts are stored.


If you have more than one contacts storage account, try searching each group, not all contacts. Then report it https://apple.com/feedback

Sr. Tech advisor confirmed tonight that there is a known issue affecting all users and should be fixed by tomorrow a.m.


my contacts won’t synch.

Is your phone searching 1 to 10 contacts then 30 seconds can be long.

But if you have over hundred or thousand, 30 seconds isn't that long.

What cloud or mail program do you sync your contacts to?

Are you on wifi or cellular data.

Like anything else restart your device.

I'm also having the issue that when I create a new contact, it does not populate in my Contact List. However, when I log into my Outlook account (which I use to manage my contacts), it's been created multiple times.
