# Contacts UI

Provide an interface that allows people to display information about their contacts.

## Overview

Overview The Contacts UI framework contains user interface objects that provide access to a person’s contacts in your app. Depending on your app’s authorization level for using contacts (as indicated by authorizationStatus(for:)), your app may be able to display, edit, select, and create contacts. When the authorization level is CNAuthorizationStatus.limited, you can display a ContactAccessButton to request access to contacts beyond the limited set a person has currently granted your app access to.
