    So at the very beginning of your code, you have declared a variable:

    public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
    ArrayList<ContactModel>arrContact= new ArrayList<>();
    RecyclerContactAdapter adapter; // You have declared an adapter here
    RecyclerView recyclerView;
    FloatingActionButton btnOpndlg;

    ...
}

    But close to the end of your code, you have defined another adapter:

    RecyclerContactAdapter adapter= new RecyclerContactAdapter(this, arrContact);
recyclerView.setAdapter(adapter);

    The above will only create a new local variable and keeps your top adapter being null.

    So if you would like to access adapter in any function within the same class, you should assign to your top declared adapter. And therefore you should remove RecyclerContactAdapter for the bottom one:

    adapter = new RecyclerContactAdapter(this, arrContact);
recyclerView.setAdapter(adapter);

    adapter don’t assign obj,you need Assigns a value to a declared variable.

      adapter = new RecyclerContactAdapter(this, arrContact);

    You can also add a check, if it’s null or not

    if(adapter !=null) {
    adapter.notifyItemInserted(arrContact.size()-1);
}
