No option for sharing Home

Hello,


I would like to share my Home with my mate but, even if I'm connected to the wifi home, I'm unable to invite, no option is shown in the Home managmentm as you can see in my screen.


I'm italian and the screen is in my language, but you should recognize the UI :)

iPhone 13 Pro, iOS 16

From Share control of your home - Apple Support:


If you can't share control of a home

  • You and the people you invite need an iPhone or iPad updated to the latest version of iOS or iPadOS or a Mac updated to the latest version of macOS.
  • Make sure you and the people you invite are signed into iCloud on an iPhone, iPad or Mac. In iCloud settings, turn on Home.
  • Make sure you and the people you invite haven't blocked each other's phone number or Apple ID. Find out how to manage blocked phone numbers, contacts and email addresses on iPhone or iPad and how to manage blocked callers on Mac.
  • To invite people to control your home while you're away and edit permissions for them, you need to set up a home hub. If you don't have a home hub set up, you can only invite people when you're at home and connected to your home Wi-Fi network.


Anything there help? I've highlighted one in particular that might be relevant. Is your mate a contact in your phone?
