Creating & Accessing Contact Groups After Upgrading Droid Turbo to Lollipop

After I upgraded to Lollipop I realized that I cannot create contact groups. Also, the contact groups I had on my old phone aren't viewable in Lollipop. How can i get this to work? The outdated KitKat User's Guide says that in the app list there is a People app that contains groups. In Lollipop there is no longer a People app and the Contact app doesn't contain the contact groupings either.

I know how important having access to the features you came to enjoy is. I was able to confirm the Contacts Groups option is no longer available in the new Lollypop update. An alternative would be to download a third party app from the Google Play Store and see which app would work best for you. As an example, please check out this link:

Richard, I'm so glad you posted this question. We at Verizon are familiar with the concerns that a sofware update and the various changes it can bring. You will have some changes yes, however in regards to your question about the wallpaper, I am not sure if the "smoke" will still be there. There are many free applications available in the app store that you can download and use to customize your wallpaper if you do lose it. The updates as a whole are best to do for the best performance of the device, therfore I do recommend doing the update. Here is a link for some additional help with your update to your specifiic device and some things to know about what to expect. http://www.verizonwireless.com/support/droid-turbo-update/

I installed the suggested app by Flipdog but was unimpressed. Is there another one that provides more utility?
