Oppo: Create a Custom Contact Group

Oppo's Contacts app only offers a few predefined groups like Family or Friends, and none of them match a specific team, class, or project chat. If you want to call or message the same set of people at once, you need to build that list yourself instead of relying on the default categories.

Create a Contact Group auf Oppo

Oppo phones running ColorOS come with a Contacts app that sorts entries into a small set of default categories. These rarely match how you actually organize people, whether that is a work team, a sports club, or a family chat that spans several branches.

Creating your own group solves this by grouping selected contacts under one custom label. Once the group exists, you can call or message everyone in it without picking each name individually every time.

Groups are tied to the account you create them in, so pick the right one first, for example a Google account or the phone's local storage. Mixing accounts later can cause the same contact to show up twice if it is synced from more than one source.

Menu path to create a group

Tap on ContactsOpen the MenuTap on Create labelEnter a Name and tap OKTap on Add a contactTap and hold a ContactIf desired, select other ContactsTap on Save

If contacts still appear duplicated across groups afterward, check whether the same person is stored under two different accounts rather than assuming the group itself is broken.

Frequently asked questions

Pick the account where the contacts you want to group actually live, for example your Google account. If you choose a different account, the contacts you try to add via Tap on Add a contact may not show up in the selection list.
