The Gadget Helpline is here to help you manage your Samsung Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge contacts!

From adding a friend’s details manually, to saving a number from a person who’s called you – this guide can help with these queries as well as offering other tips including adding a photo and adding a contact to speed dial.

These useful contact steps should also work on most of the recently released Samsung/Android handsets, although for the purpose of this guide we have performed them on the flagship Samsung Galaxy S6 model.
