contacts keep disappearing

The text, name keep disappearing from my iphone contact lists. The apple support group made a good effort to help a couple months ago when it happened after one of the automatic software upgrades, but were not successful and stated they thought it was related to a third party software - not Apple. But I can't find it and it is still happening.

Unlike some Android devices, contacts are neither stored locally on an iPhone nor in SIM. They are synced to an email account that you had Google, iCloud, AOL, Exchange, Outlook, Yahoo or any Other


If Contacts on iCloud, try this --> Restore contacts, calendars, bookmarks, and more using ...


Else add the email account that stores your contacts.
