I also went into Settings -> Contacts, and my default contacts are Gmail and not iCloud.
Another thing you can do which might be informational is go into the Contacts app and double tap on the groups button at the top of the screen. Now you can select the contacts you want to see, so for example, if you just want to see which contacts you have in iCloud, just make sure that's the only group selected and then double tap on done. Similarly you can just select on my iPhone to see which contacts are stored locally on your iPhone. I don't see anything for a sim card. -- Christopher (AKA CJ) Chaltain at Outlook -----Original Message----- From: viphone@googlegroups.com <viphone@googlegroups.com> On Behalf Of Janet Bell Sent: Monday, September 13, 2021 11:03 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: checking where your contacts are? I have gone into settings and found contacts enter on that and the first thing you hear is allow contacts to acces, siri and search, accounts 2, sort order last first display order first last, short name my info, default account iCloud, import Sim contacts, and that is all there is. hope that may help someone. confused (I am) Janet On 13/09/2021 16:58, Carolyn wrote: > I never found iCloud or Default. > > -----Original Message----- > From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On > Behalf Of Star Gazer > Sent: Monday, September 13, 2021 11:18 AM > To: viphone@googlegroups.com > Subject: RE: checking where your contacts are? > > What is the difference between default account and Icloud? > Somehow my phone picked up a bunch of contacts that I don't care about, I > suspect it ported over from either the default or the Icloud account.
