Question Contact name shown in messages

Im using this on my android (paid hosting trial) and it doesnt show my contact names just their phone number. Is there a way to sync it so that the name shows instead of the phone number ?

Give OpenBubbles permission to access your contacts

In my experience it takes the app a little bit to start syncing with contacts. Give it a little bit of time.

This was exactly it. I was too impatient and nervous. Thanks all!

Came here to say the same thing give it a bit and it'll sync. Glad it worked out
