I just updated to ios15 and cannot seem to find the “Shared with you” section in the Photos app. I know it is supposed to be under the “For You” tab, but it isn’t there!
I made sure all the settings were enabled and I had someone from my contacts list text me a photo, but still no “Shared with you” in the Photos app. I also had the same person text me a safari link and I was able to find that “shared with you” section in Safari.
Felix - I called Apple Support too. I was even escalated up three levels of support staff. I pretty much got the same answer. Because this feature & this issue is so new they didn't know what to suggest other than restoring the iPhone to factory conditions. But then this morning I woke up and the "Shared With You" section was both in my iPhone and my girlfriend's phone (it wasn't working on hers either). There are not as many photos in there as I expected (she and I are always texting photos to each other), but at least the actual "Shared With You" section was there and it had the most recent photos we'd shared with each other. I think it is taking time to roll out or index or something. So I wouldn't bother restoring the iPhone just yet. Give it some time and maybe it will start working, or maybe there will be an update to ios15 soon to fix the early bugs.
I did a hard reset of the iPhone and more photos appeared in that section, but nothing new. Can I ask are you seeing this when you click on "People" in the People & Places section of the photo app?
I'm also seeing the same. Anyone else?
Yes I’m having the same issue. I see the Safari links shared with me but no photo album in Photos
Mine kinda showed up today. Only 3. There should be more.
Had to make the call myself to Apple Support. Was told short of restoring the iPhone there was nothing else I could do.
No, the "People" section on my phone under "Albums" is working and is propagated with faces.
Ok so when you tap it, it goes straight to showing the faces?
Yes. It looks like your phone may need to index the faces first?
I was thinking this might have been part of the issue but I guess not. Hopefully one day in the future it'll work it self out.
“Shared with you” not showing up in Photos app on ios15
