I got it. double tapping on the Mobile button brings up a menu.
Confusing since I assumed that a double tap of a button activated it and
did not bring up a menu.
Thanks.

Richard’s instructions are correct, you have to double tap on where it
says “Mobile, button”, then the list of options like Home, Work, etc.

Sorry Richard, your details do not match my edit screen.
Maybe my using IOS 26.5.2 makes a difference.
There is no label mobile, there is "remove mobile".
When in edit, I flick right, bast the text fields for names and hear:
remove mobile
mobile button
555-5555
When I double tap the "remove mobile" there is only delete.
Some of the contacts have the label "remove home".

Open the contact.
Double tap on edit.
When you land on the label Mobile, double tap. Now flick to home
and double tap.
double tap on done where the edit button was and it should save as
Home.

Hello,
I'm using the Iphone 17 with IOS 26.
When starting to use the Iphone I created a contact with the
phone number in the appropriate field. I didn't know about
designating it as Home or Mobile.
Some contacts cards have phone numbers designated as mobile
but they are not mobile.
When asking Siri to call she sometimes asks if I want
"mobile", there is only 1 number and it is Home.
Can they be changed to Home when designated mobile?
