1. If you have previously backed up your contacts to your Samsung account, you can try restoring them:
- Go to "Settings" on your Samsung Galaxy.
- Scroll down and tap on "Accounts and backup" or "Accounts."
- Select "Samsung account."
- Tap on "Restore data."
- Choose "Contacts" and select the backup file you want to restore from.
- Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the restoration process.
2. If you have enabled Samsung Cloud backup on your device, you might be able to recover deleted contacts from Samsung Galaxy there:
- Go to "Settings" on your Samsung Galaxy.
- Scroll down and tap on "Accounts and backup" or "Accounts."
- Select "Samsung Cloud."
- Tap on "Restore data."
- Choose "Contacts" and select the backup file you want to restore from.
- Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the restoration process.
These methods rely on previously enabled backup options on your Samsung Galaxy device. If you haven't enabled any of these features before, unfortunately, there might not be a free built-in method to recover deleted contacts from Samung Galaxy. Regularly backing up your contacts in the future can help prevent data loss.
