Why are my contacts not displayed in WhatsApp?-Solved

If your friend does not appear in the Select contact list, please do the following steps from 2 Options:

Option 1:

1. Ensure that your friends is a contact in your phone address book
2. WhatsApp will show contacts only if they are using WhatsApp. Please check that with your friend
3. In your Android phone book, make sure that all contact accounts (i.e. SIM, Google, Phone) are "visible" or "viewable".
4. In your Android phone book, ensure that all contact groups (i.e. Friends, Family) are "visible" or "viewable".

It is recommended, you make your contacts "not visible" and then "visible" to force a refresh. After doing this launch WhatsApp >  > Menu Button > Refresh.

Option 2:
Alternatively, you can use all your contacts, not just the "visible" ones. To do this go to Menu Button > Settings > Contacts > Show all contacts.

Step 1: Select Settings from the WhatsApp front page

Step 2: From the Settings Menu, choose Contacts

Step 3: Select Show All Contacts

Happy WhatsApp-ing :)
