Welcome to the "How to share a contact from an iPhone" video course. In this video, you'll learn how to share a contact from your iPhone to a friend's phone.
From the Home screen, tap the phone icon to open the app. At the bottom of the screen, tap the Contacts icon. From your list of contacts, find the person whose details you want to share and tap on their name. Scroll the contact card to find Share Contact, and tap on it.
On the next screen, check the details you want to share. And when you're satisfied, tap Done. The share menu opens with different options for how to share the contact's details. You can scroll the row from right to left and tap More to see other options. For this demonstration, we'll tap on Messages to share the details via text message or SMS. The Messages app opens, showing the contact details you want to share.
Now you can add the recipient's details at the top of the screen. You can tap the plus icon to search your contacts list or enter a new number in the To field. You can also enter the name or number of a saved contact to see suggestions. Once the contact you want displays, tap on it to add it to the message. The message is now complete and you can tap the blue Send arrow to share it.
