That's because you are sharing contacts the hard way. I usually do the same, but ideally the process is automated enough that you don't need to type any of the contact details. In that case, the email should be automatically included with the name and phone number.
- cesarb 3y agoI'd like to learn about these ideal ways. The most usual way to share a contact I know of, other than typing its details by hand, is by forwarding the contact through WhatsApp, and then it still wouldn't have the email because it whoever originally created the contact typed the details by hand (and included only the name and phone number).
- gnicholas 3y agoFor me (GP), I create a contact card after getting someone's phone number, and I just enter their name. I don't really need to create a contact card with email addresses because I can just search my email application for their name, which is almost always in their email address. Phone numbers, on the other hand, are obviously not searchable in this way. I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one who's 'doing it wrong'!

That's the tenuous assumption you are making here. Lots of people put their email in their contact info: why not, if there's a place for it?
