well, it is easier than I had written, but it still takes one more step. I opened a text message, double tapped on the phone number at the top middle, then on the info button, but I then had to double tap on another info button before the option to add to contacts came up.
Richard "You know," said Arthur, "it's at times like this, when I'm trapped in a Vogon airlock with a man from Betelgeuse, and about to die of asphyxiation in deep space, that I really wish I'd listened to what my mother told me when I was young."

This is my experience with doing that. It may be easier than this, but here goes: Adding a contact from a text message Open the text message. Then double tap on the phone number. Then, double tap on the phone number again. Then flick right to the info button and double tap. You have to then double tap again on the number before you find the create contact option where it usually shows up.

Hello all, So like say yesterday a friend texted me with her phone number so with this being said how do I get in there in the Messages program to edit it just like you do with the phone when somebody calls you? Now don’t ask me how this happened, last week somehow I got into it in the Messages program and was able to create a new contact in the Messages program. Hope I didn’t confuse you with my explanations. Thanks in advance for your help. Thanks for your prompt attention!
