Does your WhatsApp app show numbers but does not show contact names on your iPhone? In such a situation, communication through WhatsApp becomes stressful and almost impossible.
One of the reasons for not seeing the names is that WhatsApp has not updated the contact list. This is usually done automatically, but in this case, all you have to do is update the list manually.
Follow the steps below to manually update your WhatsApp contacts list on iPhone:
Step 1: Open the WhatsApp app and go to the Favorites tab.
Step 2: Go to the top of your Favorites list, then swipe down with your finger.
This will update your WhatsApp contact list. Your favorites will be saved alphabetically and the numbers will be changed to WhatsApp contacts.
If you are still unable to see the names after updating your contacts, it is recommended that you check your iPhone settings. This will make sure that WhatsApp has access to the contacts stored in your phonebook.
How to get access to the iPhone contacts list for WhatsApp?
Follow the steps below to ensure that WhatsApp has access to your contacts:
Step 1, first go to the phone settings page, then tap Apps. Then select WhatsApp from the list of applications.
Step 2 Tap Permissions and make sure all permissions are enabled.
It should be noted that when someone sends you a message on WhatsApp for the first time, this application will display the number of this contact.
