Contact card via iMessage while responding to a text

Hello Ks1309,

Thanks for reaching out using Apple Support Communities!

It sounds like you're trying to share a contact card with someone via iMessage, but you're not seeing that option. We're happy to help out with this.

You'll want to open the Contacts app, and share the contact from there. Our Apple Support page has the full details to assist: Add and use contact information on iPhone

We hope this helps directly answer your question.

Cheers!

Hello Ks1309,

We can understand wanting to complete these steps without having to add the contact to your phone.

The best way is still to use the steps we provided. Once you tap share from the Contacts app, you can select iMessage, then type in the number that you want to share to.

This way you can still share the one contact but not have to add the other contact in your iPhone.

We also welcome your feedback for other ways to share contacts on our Apple Feedback page: Feedback - Messages for iOS and iPadOS

Cheers!
