My elderly mother had problems with her S10 Plus, and I finally had to do a factory reset. After going through the set up, I opened her Contacts app. Each contact only had the name and phone number. There wasn't the "View More" to add addresses, etc.

Any idea what I can do to remedy this issue?

Maybe you need to updates apps. Look for app updates on Galaxy store app.

Additionally check to see if you are using Samsung contacts app and not a third party version.

Also open contacts, then tap on 3 lines to go to menu, then gear icon and scroll down to about contacts and this will show you if there is an update available.

You can also create a temporary contact name and see if you can add address.

Here is how it looks on my screen Screenshot_20220427-193238_Contacts.jpg

When you are in contacts app, tap a name and at the bottom tap Edit, then you will see view more on the next screen

Charkatak, thank you again. I kept trying different things and something worked. The "view more" with all the extra information is there.
