Reorder It!

Finally was able to reorder phone numbers the way I like it!

Crazy that this functionality isn’t baked into iOS! But this app does exactly what it says on the tin, meaning I have order again with my phone numbers. Thank you!

This app simply adds the ability to drag & drop to change the display order of the phone numbers for any of your contacts How annoying is it when a friend gets a new number and you add it to their contact details and your iPhone shows it at the end and won’t let you drag it to the top of the list. This app adds that ability and more. Also works with emails and other contact details.

I was recommended this app. Very good except for one annoying niggle, hence it dropped a star. I use dark mode on my iPad, and in that mode email addresses and phone numbers etc are displayed in black letters on a dark grey background. Very difficult to read.

Small, perfectly formed, easy to use, and does exactly what it says on the tin! This should be a standard part of the Contacts app. But until it is, I’m glad this app exists.

What a great app and how gobsmacking that by iOS 14.2, Apple haven’t included this functionality as standard! Worked straightaway on my iPhone 8 and you can sort emails, addresses, urls, phone numbers and dates with a push of your finger. Helpfully doesn’t list any with only one item in a category. As soon as you move them in the app they are changed in Contacts. Excellent and well worth 99p! Thank you :-)

Developer responded to my comment about text being difficult to read in dark mode. Developer fixed the problem. App works great and developer is responsive. 5 stars to both. By the way, I didn’t realize dark mode was controlled by the global setting. My bad.

I find it bizarre that Apple still does not have this ability. This also works on Apple Silicon Macs - seems you have to re-order thiings seperately from iPhone. Also, if you are confused why some entries do not appear at all - it's because there is nothing to reorder - i.e. any particular field only has one entry. One use case where this app is useful is CarPlay. If you share your ETA and speak the name of the contact, it appears to choose the first number it finds in the contact - which might be a landline.

Reordering phone numbers in this app doesn’t reorder them in the iPhone Contacts. Also, the dark grey text on the black background is nearly unreadable. Please refund my $0.99. UPDATE: The developer addressed both issues. Now it’s a useful app.

I have some pretty large contacts with multiple phone numbers, emails addresses etc. When I update them, I can use "re-order it" to put the more important phone numbers/emails/etc in the contact at the top, or wherever I want to put them. Why Apple does not include this capability in their own "contacts" app is surprising to me. I have been using this app for years over multiple versions of iOS, different iPads and iPhones, without any problems whatsoever. It has not been updated in a couple years, but it works great on iOS 16.6. Thank goodness for this developer who created an easy to use app for this purpose. It is an incredible timesaver when updating a contact with a lot of fields. For those who don't understand how it works, find the contact you want to reorder (the app includes a helpful search bar), select the field that you want to re-order (email, phone etc), then using the 3 line "hamburger" bars on the right hand side, "press and hold" to change the order of that field. By default, the "delete" option is turned off. You can turn on (bottom right hand corner) if you desire to delete fields in a contact. Note: The app will not show a contact that does NOT have multiple field entries. This makes sense as it reduces screen clutter, though I could see it might be confusing to some.
