Share a contact
It’s easy to share a contact. Select a contact, then tap Share Contact. Choose the fields you want to share, tap the Done button, then choose a sharing option such as Messages or Mail.
Sync your contacts
See your contacts on your other Apple devices when you’re signed in to the same Apple Account. Go to Settings > [your name] > iCloud. Tap See All next to Saved to iCloud, then turn on Contacts.
