If you would like to search for a specific user or filter your contacts, you can use the search bar above the contacts list. Simply begin typing the name or phone number of the person you’re looking for in the search bar to begin filtering the list of contacts.

 

Spotlight Search for iOS

Spotlight is an iOS feature that allows iOS users to search for contents based on suggestions from Siri. Users can now utilise the Spotlight Search feature to look for a BT Cloud Work contact without launching the BT Cloud Work Mobile app for placing phone calls or sending messages. The Spotlight Search feature is available for iPad and iPhone in iOS 9 or later.

1. Launch Spotlight.
2. Type the name of a BT Cloud Work contact in the search box. Tap the name of the contact in the search results.
3. You will be able to view the contact's information. You can send a Text Message, Call, or send a Fax to the contact's phone number.

NOTE: The BT Cloud Work Text Message feature is limited to sending Text Messages to Users within your BT Cloud Work account. The BT Cloud Work Text Message feature will not allow Users to send Text Messages to other mobile carriers. 

QUICK TIP: If you are unable to view BT Cloud Work search results in Spotlight, make sure to add BT Cloud Work to the list of applications to include in your Spotlight searches. For more information, visit the Apple Support Website
