NSPredicate to filter the Contact Number in NSMutableArray

    //  Person.h

    @interface Person : NSObject
    @property (nonatomic, strong) NSString *firstName;
    @property (nonatomic, strong) NSMutableArray *phoneNumbers;
    @property (nonatomic, strong) UIImage *personImage;
    @property (nonatomic, strong) NSNumber* recordID;


    - (id)initWithPerson:(Person *)person;

    @end

I am fetching the contact from the address book and adding it into custom class Person. Now for every contact in address book there might be multiple number so i have used NSMutableArray phoneNumbers , Now i need to search the contact and get the name of the Person .

I have Tried doing like this :

NSPredicate *predicate =
[NSPredicate predicateWithFormat:@"phoneNumbers like %@",contactNumber];
NSArray *filtered  = [addressBookData filteredArrayUsingPredicate:predicate];

I am getting Nil in filtered array. Please suggest me how to solve this problem.

Instead of like you should be using contains to compare the contents of the array rather than the array itself.
