    Hi all,

    If you want to get contact name and contact number from your iphone contact list then below two methods can help you to get contact name and contact phone number .

    Note: In this you will only get those contacts,which contain phone number or mobile number.

    [self addFromAddressBook];
    

    above code to call method addFromAddressBook.

    -(void)addFromAddressBook{
        ABAddressBookRef addressBook = ABAddressBookCreate();
    
        __block BOOL accessGranted = NO;
    
        if (&ABAddressBookRequestAccessWithCompletion != NULL) { // We are on iOS 6
            dispatch_semaphore_t semaphore = dispatch_semaphore_create(0);
    
            ABAddressBookRequestAccessWithCompletion(addressBook, ^(bool granted, CFErrorRef error) {
                accessGranted = granted;
                dispatch_semaphore_signal(semaphore);
            });
    
            dispatch_semaphore_wait(semaphore, DISPATCH_TIME_FOREVER);
        }
    
        else { // We are on iOS 5 or Older
            accessGranted = YES;
            [self getContactsWithAddressBook:addressBook];
        }
    
        if (accessGranted) {
            [self getContactsWithAddressBook:addressBook];
        }
    
    }
    
    
    // Get the contacts.
    - (void)getContactsWithAddressBook:(ABAddressBookRef )addressBook {
    
        NSMutableArray *contactList = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init];
        CFArrayRef allPeople = ABAddressBookCopyArrayOfAllPeople(addressBook);
        CFIndex nPeople = ABAddressBookGetPersonCount(addressBook);
    
        for (int i=0;i < nPeople;i++) {
            NSMutableDictionary *dOfPerson=[NSMutableDictionary dictionary];
    
            ABRecordRef ref = CFArrayGetValueAtIndex(allPeople,i);
    
            //For username and surname
            ABMultiValueRef phones =(__bridge ABMultiValueRef)((__bridge NSString*)ABRecordCopyValue(ref, kABPersonPhoneProperty));
    
            CFStringRef firstName, lastName;
            firstName = ABRecordCopyValue(ref, kABPersonFirstNameProperty);
            lastName  = ABRecordCopyValue(ref, kABPersonLastNameProperty);
            if (phones) {
                NSString *mobile;
                for(CFIndex j = 0; j < ABMultiValueGetCount(phones); j++) {
                    mobile = (__bridge NSString*)ABMultiValueCopyLabelAtIndex(phones, j);
                    if ([mobile isEqualToString:(NSString *)kABPersonPhoneMobileLabel]||[mobile isEqualToString:(NSString*)kABPersonPhoneIPhoneLabel]) {
                        [dOfPerson setObject:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@ %@", firstName, lastName] forKey:@"name"];
                    }
                }
    
            }
    
            //For Phone number
            NSString* mobileLabel;
    
            for(CFIndex j = 0; j < ABMultiValueGetCount(phones); j++) {
                mobileLabel = (__bridge NSString*)ABMultiValueCopyLabelAtIndex(phones, j);
                if([mobileLabel isEqualToString:(NSString *)kABPersonPhoneMobileLabel])
                {
                    [dOfPerson setObject:(__bridge NSString*)ABMultiValueCopyValueAtIndex(phones, j) forKey:@"Phone"];
                }
                else if ([mobileLabel isEqualToString:(NSString*)kABPersonPhoneIPhoneLabel])
                {
                    [dOfPerson setObject:(__bridge NSString*)ABMultiValueCopyValueAtIndex(phones, j) forKey:@"Phone"];
                    break ;
                }
    
            }
            if(![[dOfPerson allKeys] isEqualToArray:[NSMutableArray new]])
                [contactList addObject:dOfPerson];
    
        }
       // add your code here to use contact list 
            NSLog(@"Contacts = %@",contactList);
        }
