Hi Johnboy76,


Does your wife see the same thing when using another device or the iCloud website? We want to see if this is showing in multiple places or only one. If needed, here is the iCloud link: iCloud


If this is only happening on your wife's iPhone, restarting may help resolve that as it refreshes the iOS and apps installed:

"How to restart your iPhone X, 11, 12, 13, or later

  1. Press and hold either volume button and the side button until the power-off slider appears.
  2. Drag the slider, then wait 30 seconds for your device to turn off. If your device is frozen or unresponsive, force restart your device.
  3. To turn your device back on, press and hold the side button (on the right side of your iPhone) until you see the Apple logo."


Those steps are from this article: Restart your iPhone - Apple Support If your wife has a different iPhone model then noted above, opening that article and following the relevant steps for the specific iPhone model should help. Let us know if that helps or if that step was already tried.


Take care!
