Contacts List - Samsung GalaxySIII User Manual

Contacts List

Creating a Contact
The default storage location for saving phone numbers to
your Contacts List is your phone's built-in memory.
If existing Google and Corporate email accounts have been
synchronized to your phone, these will be made available to
your device during the creation of new entries. These new
Contacts entries can be assigned or saved to synced
accounts such as Phone, SIM, Google, or Corporate.
Your device automatically sorts the Contacts entries
alphabetically. You can create either a MobileLife Contacts,
Google, SIM, Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync, or Phone
contact.
Note: Before you can save a contact to the Phone, Contact
settings must be set to Save new contacts to Phone.
Important! The Google and Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync
account types are only visible after creating an
email account of those types on your phone.
