Adding recent call to contacts in iPhone 5c

11-14-13 Open your "Recent" call log, carefully tap on the little icon to the right of the number..it's a circle with the i in it. Then scroll down to "Create New Contact". You can also "Add to Exsisting Contact" and "Block this Caller" when you are in this area of the screen. Hope this helps.

I'm sure they have better things to do (like work on the iPad) and as there hasn't been an OS update how did you expect it to happen ?

Ios 7 adding recent calls to contacts

How do you add missed or recent calls to my contacts in my IPhone 5 under IOS 7? The add to contact appears to be removed.

Hi,
If you go to the Recent section of your iPhone, there is a little blue "i" with a blue circle around it, tap on it
It will give you the option to "create a new contact"
Hope this helps

My recent calls list on my iphone 5 all disappeared? what should i do?

Sounds as if someone inadvertently (or meanly) cleared the Recents list. The only way to get any of the information back would be to restore the phone from a recent back up.
Your carrier will also have a record of your calls. Many carriers offer the ability to log into your account and review billing details. You may need to wait until the end of your billing cycle, though.

Recent call Screen bug on iPhone

The photo below is a screen capture from my iPhone 5c recent call screen. This bug began on my iPhone 4s and carried over once I backed up and then transferred that data to my new phone. This problem first began after an update a few months ago. Is there a way of getting rid of the bug without getting rid of my contacts,mail etc.? Thank you!

I have never seen this before, and you say it started before the last update, so it could not be an update bug. What troubleshooting have you tried? User troubleshooting steps are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new. If you restore the device as new and then test it before adding any additional content, it should work. If it does and you restore your backup and it fails again, then the problem is in your backup file. Mail and contacts can be restored from wherever you are syncing them to, i.e. supported application on the computer, cloud service. That would allow you to avoid the backup.

In my "recent" calls, the contact's name no longer appears, just their number....how did happen and how to correct?

Any idea why my recent calls would transition from the contact name to just showing the number?

The contact in which the photo does appear (along with the contact's name as well) is one that I added myself. I have photos added for many of the people in my Contact List, but neither their photo nor their name appears to me whenever they call or text me.
I know how to add a photo to a contact's information within my Contact List. I need to know how I can make that photo (or even the contact's name) appear whenever I have an incoming call/text from them. What I am seeing is just their phone number, and I do not know everyone's phone number well enough to recognize from whom I am getting a call/text. It would be much easy if their photo or name appeared instead.
TYSM for your speedy reply to my query, but the information that you have provided does not solve my issue.

Create recent call as contact in a group?

I know we can use the number of a recent call to create a new contact or add to an existing contact. I also know that we can navigate to a group and add a contact to that group. How can we combine 'create contact from recent' and 'add to group' without requiring a sync with iTunes? It would be good if Contact edit could also add/change the associated group(s).
Tim

Thanks for the reply. Since I was in the recent calls list, the group added to was the default instead of the desired. Hopefully, someone will see this thread who can update the iOS software to allow editing the group of a contact. It would certainly improve usability.
Tim
Edit: I guess this won't actually be solved until iOS is updated.

Can you adjust the number of recent calls that are shown?

Can you adjust the number of recent calls shown on the iPhone? I'd like to have more displayed than it shows so that I can view more of my call history (further back).

I had to restore my iPhone 4s and now my recent calls show only phone numbers instead of the contact's name. How can I restore the names to my recent calls list?

Are the contact details in your contacts app, the phone app uses the contact app to put names against telephone numbers.

Hello! Ever since I upgraded my iPhone 5s to IOS 7.1, I am unable to access the iPhone Keyboard if I access contacts the recent calls tab. I am also unable to access the keyboard if I want to search for a contact as long as I went through the recent calls

Hello! Ever since I upgraded my iPhone 5s to IOS 7.1, I am unable to access the iPhone Keyboard if I access contacts using the recent calls tab. I am also unable to access the keyboard if I want to search for a contact as long as I went through the recent calls tab. Has anyone a fix for this problem? If you want to try it out, do the following?
Dial a number from your iPhone Keypad. After cutting the call, try to save the number you just dialled to your contacts by choosing the new contact option. You will see that you will not be able to key in the name of your new contact.

Works fine for me.
Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps BEFORE doing the reset.

When looking at recent calls on my iPhone running iOS 7, how can I tell which number called me when a contact has multiple numbers listed?

I have an iPhone 5s and I am coming from an Android phone. On the Android phone, when looking at recent calls both the contact name and the number is displayed. On my iPhone I only see the contact name, in the case of contacts with multiple numbers attached how do I see which number the call came from?

Click the "i" in the circle to the right of the contact name.
The phone number the call came from is listed in blue.

Contacts created from recent calls not showing up in Contact application

recently added contact from recent calls section. Tried to find contact in the Contact applicaton and it wasn't there. I was able to find it by searching the phone and the name came up when I received a call from the contact again. How do I get it to appear in the Contact application for easier access? Do I have to create the contact in the CONTACT APPLICATION for it to appear?
Thanks for your help.

After calling Verizon, here is a fix that worked for me.
1.) Look at your contacts information on the iPhone. If your phone numbers are not formatted with the parentheses and dashes, and are just a string of numbers like this: 1234567890, it likely means something went afoul in the initial sync. This is a good indicator that the following will work.
2. BACKUP YOUR IPHONE ON ITUNES before you go any farther. You may eject the iPhone at this point or leave it connected. I left mine connected to my desktop.
3. Then go to Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings. You will receive a prompt or two to make certain this is what you want. Proceed.
4. Let the Reset process conclude. It may take a couple minutes or so.
5. You will have to go through the re-activation process afterwards. Slug through it.
6. When all that is finished, reconnect your iPhone (if you disconnected it after backup).
7. When asked, select "Restore iPhone from a Backup". Let the process finish.
8. Now, check your contacts. If instead of seeing a line of numbers for your phone entries, you see a number properly formatted like this: (123) 456-7890, then you have likely solved your problem.
9. Try calling your iPhone from a phone that is in your contacts list and see what happens.
10. If this doesn't work, you will likely have to call Verizon or Apple. The Verizon tech support agent said that the issue has been sent to Apple for resolution. It may be something amiss in the initial install of iOS to the Verizon phones. Who knows, but this is defnitely a software issue of some type.

Force iPhone to put newly added contacts under iPhone contact group

I want to be able to have my iphone put a newly added contact under my iphone contacts and not all contacts. Is there a way to force iphone to do this? I am using mobile me, think I remember hearing someone mention a setting in itunes for this. Don't have this option with mobile me.
Thanks,
Toby

I agree with Oregon Farmer. All Contacts contain all contacts from every created group (i.e. "iPhone contacts"), so once you add a contact into "iPhone Contacts", the same info is placed in the "All Contacts" group. Sort of like "Music" in library and playlists.
There used to be an option on the iTunes, but from this website, it suggests that option was for the original iPhone http://www.apple.com/mobileme/setup/iphone/mac.html
I was browsing around looking for a way to add a new contact (i.e. from my recent calls list) directly into the "iPhone Contacts", rather than it going automatically only into the "All Contacts" list. If anyone has an idea, I'd appreciate it. I'm also using Mobileme.

HT201394 Why are some of my contacts randomly showing as 'no caller id' in my recent calls list?

I updated to ios 8.0.2 yesterday and now when I go into my recent caller list lots of the numbers are showing up as 'No Caller ID' even thought they are in my contacts list, were showing up correctly before I updated, and when you go into the 'No Caller Id' number it shows the contact details. It isn't even uniform as to which contacts are affected with the same number sometimes showing correctly and other times showing no caller id. Is anyone else having this problem and can anyone tell me how I can fix this? So far I am not loving ios 8.0.2 one bit!!

I'm also having this problem on my iPhone 5 with iOS 8.1.2 installed.
In case it helps anyone to see the problem this is what my Recents list looks like in the Phone app (I have greyed out the two names it did randomly recognize). There does not appear to be any coherent pattern to this. All of the 'No Caller ID's listed are from people in my Contacts, as you can see it recognizes that they are from a mobile, work or other number and when you hit the i for more info the person's full contact details are displayed as per their entry in my Contacts app.
Restarting the phone has not solved it, neither has leaving the app open for a while. I know this is an old photo but it is still happening randomly with some new calls.

Contact Names in Recent Call List

When someone calls me their name does not appear on screen or in recent call list. Only their number shows. When I call someone by tapping on their number from contact list, only their number shows on the screen and then in recent call list.

Tell Apple you'd like to see this:

There is no setting on your phone to do so.
