Contact photo on other phones not updating

I recently updated my photo on both AppleID and in my card in the Contacts app. The new photo shows up on my phone, but everyone else (all of my contacts) still have my old contact card. This has been going on for a few months now through various updates and restarts. Even new contact card shares are showing the old photo. Any ideas?

iPhone 7, iOS 14

Hello Mint_Milano,


We understand that you're having some trouble with your contact photo showing for others. Check out the info under "Change who you share your name and photo with" from the following resource and see if that helps:


Share your name and photo in Messages on Mac


Is your iPhone fully up to date?


Update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch


Also, if you go to the Apple ID website, is your photo showing properly?


Thanks!
