to subsets like Book Club or Fantasy League guys, you’ll find that they’ve been

before you see the ± button.

ready for typing.

name (page 255). There’s no way to sort it by company name...or is there?
Yes, there is. When you’re creating a contact, tap the First Last box—but enter
only a company name. Then save the entry. if you bother to go all the way back to
Contacts, you’ll see that the entry is now alphabetized by the company name.
You can now reopen it for editing and add the person’s name and other
information. The entry will remain in the list, identified (and sorted) by company
name.
