This September, Apple brings us iOS 9 and iPhone 6s/6s Plus, which ensures us a new & better Apple experience. If you have no plan to get a new iPhone, you may want to download iOS 9 on your relatively old iPhone to enjoy its new features. However, iOS upgrade is never out of risk, and you may get your important info like contacts lost during the update.

If you have backed up your iPhone to iTunes or iCloud, you can recover the contacts by restoring your device but that will erase the existed data on your iPhone. If you don't have backup, you may need to recover data from iPhone directly without any backup files. And a powerful iOS & Android data recovery software can do this for you, PhoneRescue is the most advisable way to go.
