Can't find existing contact in Contacts

[TonyCzar]

I entered info for a person into my S10's Contact app (Android fully updated).  Cannot find it now, including using the Search function.  However, when I try to add it again that contact shows up.  Repeated; no change.  Have rebooted phone; no change.  Would appreciate some wisdom.

Maybe try tapping on the three lines top left. Then under the gear icon make sure it says all contacts.

Can not find my contact

Does the recipient show up when your try adding them to a text message in the messages app? 

What version of the Contacts app are you using? Check for updates in the Galaxy store.

What software version is your S10 on? (Settings > About Phone > Software Information > Build Number [last 4 characters])

Try submitting an error report through the Samsung Members app if you think it's a software issue !

I have the same problem with my S9. I enter a contact in the search bar and receive the message "no results found." I can only reach the contact by scrolling through all contacts. Per Smew advice, the person does show up when I start a text to them. But I can't dial via text so it's still inconvenient.  I have sent an error report.

I ended up just inputting the full info as if the one that popped up wasn't even there.  Worked, and no duplicate seen.
