On iPad, to keep your contact information up to date across all your devices where you’re signed in to your Apple Account, you can use iCloud. With iCloud, your contacts stay up to date automatically. You can also sync the information between iPad and your Mac or Windows device instead.

  1. Open Settings, tap [your name], and then tap iCloud.
  2. Tap See All next to Saved to iCloud and turn on Contacts.

Or, sync the information between iPad and your Mac or Windows device, and it’ll stay up to date across iPad and your computer. Read our guide, Transfer files between your iPad and other devices.

You won’t see options for syncing your contacts with your computer if you use iCloud for Contacts, since they stay up to date automatically.
