My contacts are suddenly gone from my share sheet. I’ve searched discussions. “Suggestions when sharing” is turned on, and the app I care about (Messages) is a Favorite. I have restarted the phone. Running iOS 14.0.1. Any ideas?
iPhone 11 Pro, iOS 14
I had the same problem for over a week and this is how I fixed it:
Go to ‘Siri & Search’ in Settings and scroll all the way down to ‘Messages’ and make sure that suggestions are toggled ‘on’ there as well (please see photo).
Also, if you have WhatsApp, delete and reinstall it.

Hello victorf13,
It sounds like you'd like to get the contacts showing again within your share sheet. We always recommend verifying you have a backup and updating the iPhone iOS.

Another setting to check is on is in Settings > Contacts > Siri & Search > "Show Siri Suggestions for Contacts" and "Learn from this App". Be sure your contacts show up correctly within the Contacts app. Then test using Safari sharing any webpage to see if the Contacts appear.
If the issue remains, Contact Apple for service and support.
Enjoy your week!
Thank you! I was at 14.0.1, but just updated to 14.1, confirmed both those settings are on, and contacts show in contact app -- and still no contacts in the Share Sheet. I appreciate the reply though!
Huh!
“Show Siri” was on, but “Learn from” was off. Turned it on, and now seeing some suggested contacts. (Also deleted WhatsApp, because why not.)
To others: If you do this, contacts won’t show up right away — you need to text some people for them to show up.
Fingers crossed this sticks. Thank you Ceelo456!!! (And, thank you for the annotated screenshots — that’s above and beyond!)
You are welcome.
Omg, THANK YOU Ceelo456!!!
My pleasure.
thank you!! Mine was on so I toggled it on and off (as well as “suggestions when sharing”) and that seemed to work :)
My pleasure. Merry Christmas! 🙏🏼🎄
