Huawei P20 Pro Troubleshoot contact search problems - Solved

If you use the search within the Contacts app to find a specific contact, you may encounter problems.

This means that despite the correct search term, such as surname or first name, the contact will not be found.

To fix this, there is a special function within the Contacts app: so-called "indexing". In this manual we would like to explain how to perform such a new indexing on the Huawei P20 Pro within the Contacts App:

2. Tap on "More" at the bottom of the menu box within the contact overview.

3. Now select "Organize contacts" from the context menu.
