Contacts not syncing between your phone and computer
Make sure contact sync is turned on and you're using the same account (Google, Apple, or Microsoft) on both devices. On iPhone, go to Settings → [Your name] → iCloud → Contacts and turn it on. On Android, go to Settings → Accounts → Google → turn on Contacts.
Contacts sync through your cloud account. Google, Apple (iCloud), or Microsoft. If contacts aren't appearing on all your devices, sync is turned off, you're saving contacts to the wrong account, or the account isn't added to one of your devices. Checking sync settings on both devices fixes it.
Fix-IT-Bot will walk you through each step — just tap, no typing needed.
Skip — I just want a technicianCommon mistakes to avoid
- Saving contacts to 'Phone' instead of a cloud account. Phone-only contacts don't sync
- Only checking sync on one device. It needs to be on for both
Signs you need professional help
- If sync is on, the right account is added to both devices, and contacts still aren't syncing after an hour, give us a call.
