Summary: Feel helpless when lost some important contacts on your iPhone XS or iPhone XS Max? This tutorial will tells a most simple and effective way to get back the lost contacts from your iPhone XS(Max).
“I’ve lost some contacts, totally randomly (not all contacts, just some now and again). Naturally it’s always a contact that I use and go to phone or message and the contact has disappeared.After googling, I thought the issue may be to do with icloud. However, when I went to restore contacts with icloud, there were none to restore. I then checked on my phone to ensure it was backing up but each time I try and go into icloud on the iPhone XS(Max) it says “can’t connect to iCloud”. Has anyone else experienced losing some of their contacts? Thanks!” -Susam.
