When users try to delete their iPhone contacts via Contact -> Edit -> Delete, it takes the contact from the mail contact list.
But every time when users begin to type in a name to start a text message which start with deleted contact person first letter, their whole contact shows up.
This issue happened because of the iMessage cache.
So how to completely delete iPhone contact/phone number?
- First delete contact from your iPhone contacts list using Contact -> Edit -> Delete.
- Go to iMessage and compose new message.
- Type the deleted contacts name in iMessage.
- Tap the information icon (i) to the side.
- From the recent option, click the remove.

Went to contacts, and editbut where delete contact should be it says LINK CONTACT. HElp!!
I did all the steps above but there is no "remove" option. Is there another way or a reason why this is happening? The number is deleted from my contacts and I was able to "remove" the group messages I had with this person.
I know, the “remove” option is not there anymore. Is it because of the updates. Please help. Thanks.
