Contact suggestions

When I forward a pic, my phone suggests people I’ve recently or frequently contact to send via messages etc. What setting turns this feature on and off?

How Do I turn off IOS 17 asking me if I want to share my contact info EVERY SINGLE TIME? Whenever I get a phone call, text or send a message of any kind to anyone, IOS 17 on my iPhone 13 Pro continuously asks me if I want to share my contact information with them. And it’s every single time they text me or I text them. Either I have their contact info in my phone so why would I want to share my contact info with someone who already has it OR it is someone who has called me ONCE and this is the first time I have ever heard of them so why would I want to share my info with this rando? It’s a very annoying thing and I want to know if there is a way to get IOS to stop asking me.

How do I fix missing contact suggestions when sharing on new iPhone? I just ugdraded to a new iPhone and when I go to share things none of my usual Messages contacts are suggested. It's been a week and none of the people I share things with have appeared. I still see suggestions for WhatsApp and Snapchat contacts from long ago, but none for Messages. I have already gone to Settings->Apple Intelligence & Siri and turned on all of the suggestions options, including Allow Notifications and Show When Sharing. [Re-Titled by Moderator]

Hidden preview with hourglass showing up on my texts When I go into my text messages the first thing I see is a name and an hourglass and it says ‘hidden preview’ when I go to open the text messages it says communication limit and then it will say okay or add to contact list but all these contacts are already in my list so I don't understand why they're coming up like that and it’s only some? I checked and I have no limits. iPhone 12 pro max iOS 16.5.1

I figured it out! It’s the the Siri search and suggestions. You can turn on the ability to learn your habits for each app. I did camera, messages and contacts and it seemed to do the trick :)

I don't think you can turn it off.
