Not all apps are syncing between devices

My Mail, Calendar, Photos sync between my Mac Mini, my iPhone 13 Pro & my iPad, but my Contacts never do, and sometimes my Messages don't know they've been read on another device. I've tried the settings and they all say it should be syncing. Any thoughts on what might be the issue?

Toggle the contacts off in iCloud...

>System Settings>AppleID>iCloud>Contacts


and back on again and compare your results.


If no resolve sign out of iCloud on the problem device and sign back in again to jump start the sync

Sign out of iCloud on your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, Apple TV, Mac ...
