How to Assign a Photo to a Contact on Your Android Phone

Click on "Add contact" or "Edit contact." Click on the circle with the "+" and it should say "Choose photo" or "Take photo." Either of these options will take you back to the contact in editing mode. Click "Save" (top right corner). It should stay!

To add a display picture (DP) to your phone number (typically in a messaging app or contact list), you can follow these general steps. The exact process might vary slightly depending on the app or service you're using: Contact list: Open the Contacts app on your phone. Find and select your own contact. Tap on the "Edit" or pencil icon. Add Photo: Tap on the camera icon or "Add photo." Choose to take a new photo or select one from your gallery. Once you've selected the picture, adjust it as needed and save it.

Start by going into your phone setting and select Security and Privacy. Scroll down to Permissions or Permissions Manager, then select Contacts. This will open a list of apps that have permission to view or make changes to contacts. Find Gallery and make sure the radio button for "allow" is selected. You should now be able to use gallery photos within your contacts.
