How to Delete a Phone Number
If you check through your phone, you’re bound to locate at least one person whose phone number you no longer require.
While you may leave their contact information there to save space, you should definitely delete it.
This will not only save you storage space, but it will also help you declutter your contacts list.
Here’s how to delete a phone number, whether you are using an Android or iOS device
Delete a Phone Number from Android Phones
To delete a contact on an android device, follow these steps.
Step 1
To open the Contacts app, tap the “Contacts” app icon on your Android device’s home screen. The Contacts icon on basic Android devices is orange and has a person’s face superimposed on it.
Step 2
Locate the contact you wish to delete by scrolling through your contacts.
If you have a high number of contacts, then put the contact’s name in the “Search” form at the top of the Contacts directory to see a list of matches.
Step 3
Hold down the button on the contact you want to delete. At this point, your Android device will enter bulk contacts management mode, with check boxes next to all of your contacts.
Step 4
Select all of the contact entries you want to delete with a check mark, and then press the “Trash” icon in the top right corner of your screen.
The Trash symbol is shaped like a trash can. The Delete Contact prompt displays when you tap the “Trash” icon.

‣ Hover your cursor over a contact you’d like to delete until a check box appears to the left of the Contact’s name.
‣ Select the contact by checking the box.
‣ Select all of the other contacts you want to delete by checking the boxes next to them.
‣ After you’ve selected all of the contacts you wish to delete, go to the top right corner of your screen and click the Trash can icon.
‣ When you click on the Trash Can symbol, a menu will appear; select Delete.
This will delete all of the contacts you’ve chosen to be deleted.
