‘Shared With You’ photos not showing in Photos So I’m having issues with the ‘Shared With You’ section in Photos. Several friends have sent me pictures through iMessage but when I go to my Photos app and tap on the ‘For You’ tab all that shows is a message that reads “Photos scans your library to offer content curated for you. Connect your iPhone to power overnight to continue scanning.” The annoying part is that the ‘Shared With You’ function seems to be working fine everywhere else. If someone sends me a Safari link, for example, when I open Safari the link shows up immediately under the ‘Shared With You’ section. The only way I can get the photos to appear in my Photos app is if I save them to my phone manually which isn’t a big deal but this function was working perfectly before. Whenever I received a picture through iMessage it would almost immediately show up in ‘Shared With You’ in my Photos app. I’ve searched and tried everything. I made sure I’m running the most recent software update (iOS 17), I have tried restarting my phone, I have checked to make sure that the ‘Shared With You’ option is turned on in Messages, I’ve made sure that I didn’t hide alerts for any of my contacts, I’ve signed out/signed in to my iCloud, and I even reset my phone and still it won’t work. If anyone has a solution/fix that would be great. I receive pictures and videos from friends and family all the time and it’s nice being able to see those pictures in my Photos without having to actually save them in my phone first.

What I have experienced is when you keep using the iPhone regularly the contacts with whom you interact or places you go recently and regularly will are learnt by Siri.

If you do not interact with contact or stop going to a place then it will disappear automatically.

However, you may....

To turn off Siri Suggestions, go to Settings > Siri & Search, then turn off any of the following:

Suggestions in Search
Suggestions in Lookup
Suggestions on Lock Screen

For a specific app, tap the app, then turn off Show Siri Suggestions.

Your personal information—which is encrypted and remains private—stays up to date across all your devices where you’re signed in with the same Apple ID. As Siri learns about you on one device, your experience with Siri is improved on your other devices.

Siri is designed to protect your information, and you can choose what you share. To learn more, go to Settings > Siri & Search > About Search Suggestions & Privacy.
