Keeping in Touch with the Contacts App

Who do you think you’ll call the most on your Gabb Phone™? Who will you message the most? Some people, like your parents, probably come to mind right away. You can save all these people in your Contacts app to quickly and easily contact them. There are a few other things you can do in the Contacts app too!

Now we’ll cover some cool things you can do, like:

  • Creating a new contact
  • Checking contact details
  • Setting contacts as Favorite
  • Editing contacts
  • Linking contacts
  • Searching for contacts
  • Setting up emergency contacts
  • Deleting contacts
Creating a new contact

Tap add_circle from the main screen of the Contacts app to add a new contact. Enter the person’s information:

  • First name
  • Last name
  • Phone number
  • Number type

Tap More Fields to see even more options. Here, you can add the person’s address and birthday. You can even set a custom ringtone for when they contact you.

Gabb pro Tips

Add in all your BFF’s birthdays! That way you never forget their big day, and can start their day off right with an awesome text filled with their favorite emojis.

If you want, tap camera_alt at the top of the screen to take a photo of the person or choose a photo from your Gallery.

Gabb safety Tips

You should only add someone as a contact if you know them well. When in doubt, ask your parents if it’s a good idea to add a new contact.

Checking contact details

To see a contact’s details, tap their name in your contact list. You’ll see all the information you’ve saved about the person, and any recent calls and messages with them.

Setting contacts as Favorite

You can set people you contact often as your Favorite contacts. To set a contact as Favorite, tap star in the top right of the contact’s details screen. Tap star_border again to remove them from your Favorites.

Gabb pro Tips

Wondering who you should set as Favorites in your Contacts app? Start with your parents and siblings. You’ll probably be contacting them a lot! Don’t forget to add the cousin you talk to all the time, or the grandparent that likes to hear about your big sports games.

Editing contacts

To make changes to a contact’s info, tap edit in the top right of their details screen. Make the changes and tap Save.

Linking contacts

Did you forget you had a contact for someone already, and create two contact entries for the same person? You can merge them into one. From your Contacts app’s main screen, tap and hold the first entry. Then tap the second entry so both are selected. Tap link and then choose Link.

Searching for contacts

To search for a particular contact, tap search in the top right of your Contacts app’s main screen. Start typing the name or number of the person you’re searching for. When you see the right person, tap their name to edit the contact.

Setting up emergency contacts

You can set up to five contacts as emergency contacts in your phone. You’ll be able to call or message them without unlocking your phone in case of emergency.

To add an emergency contact, go to your Gabb Phone’s Settings app. Choose About Phone from the menu, then Emergency Info. Here, you can add your contacts and other medical information like allergies and medications.

Ask your parents to help you set up your emergency contacts and info. They can help decide who should be contacted in case of emergency and what medical details to include.

You can also delete more than one contact at once in your Contact app’s main screen. Select a contact by tapping and holding their name. Then, tap any other contacts to select them. Tapdeletein the top right of the screen and then choose OK to delete the contacts you selected.
