You can add a new contact using the “Phone” app and the “Contacts” app. The process is the same. In this example, we’ll use the Phone app (as you might already be familiar with it).

Open the “Phone” app on your iPhone, and go to the “Contacts” tab.

Here, tap the “+” icon in the top-right corner.

From the top, you can add the new contact’s first name, last name, and company details.

Scroll down and first tap on the “Add Phone” button.

This will show a new phone number field. Enter their phone number here.

You can now scroll down and add their email address, address, birthday, and notes in a similar fashion.

If you want to assign a special ringtone, go to the “Ringtone” section. From here, you can also enable Emergency Bypass to let their calls through even when you have Do Not Disturb enabled.

Lastly, scroll back to the top. If you want to add a contact photo, tap the “Add Photo” link.

From the next screen, you’ll see multiple profile photo options. You can use a photo from your camera roll, or you can use a Memoji or an Animoji.

Tap the “Photos” button to choose a photo from your Camera Roll.

You can browse through all of your photos here. Tap on an image to select it.

Now, you can move and scale the photo to fit in the circle. Then tap the “Choose” button.

Lastly, you can add a filter to the profile picture. Tap the “Done” button to save the profile photo.

You’ll be taken back in the profile picture screen. Again, tap the “Done” button in the top-right corner.

Now, go through the new contact creation page to make sure everything looks good. Tap the “Done” button to save the contact.

You’ll now see the contact in the Contacts app on your iPhone.
