Contacts

Why when I search by number in contacts , some of the contacts are not shown.

for example I have existing contact with name Dimitar and number xxx228xxx. If I search by name, entering 'dim' I'm getting list with all contacts that have 'dim' in the name, but when I'm entering 228 in search box I don't get Dimitar in the list, but I'm getting all others which have 228 in their numbers.

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 in the IOS mail app and enable Contacts.If you have a corporate email account added through a profile on your device, please check with your organisation's system administrator.
