Do I presume you've always opened Contacts OK before? If so then maybe this
won't help.
I havfe found on occasions, since IOS8, that it's been necessary to ensure
I've actually been tapping on the button, rather than anywhere on the
screen. Just tapping anywhere on the screen in these situations, after
hearing the last item spoken which was the one that I'd wanted, just hasn't
worked. It hasn't occurred with Contacts in my case and in fact I can't
remember the last time I saw it now; but I do know it's not just been a
case of hearing the last item as "Contacts" and double tapping the screen
anywhere but actually finding the Contacts and positioning my finger on it
to open.
You might want to give it a go.
I don't think it's a good work around myself and it shouldn't be necessary
to position a finger on particular buttons to double tap them, but it
sometimes is, so I live with it!

OK. I tried having Siri opening Contacts. It didn’t work. Then tried opening
the Contacts myself…it didn’t work. Then, I handed the phone to my niece.
She opened it without VoiceOver being on. So, I tried it again. And, it
showed me to be an idiot to my 13 year old niece. It worked fine. You don’t
know how many times I’ve tried opening Contacts. Shutting down the phone.
Turning VoiceOver on and off. Going into the Settings. Nothing since
upgrading. And, all of a sudden it works. Go figure!

Anyone experiencing trouble opening the Contacts app after upgrading to
IOS 8.1.2? Had no problem opening Contacts using 8.1.1 but now it won’t
open using VoiceOver. Strangely, it opens when a friend uses my phone
without VoicOver.
