This happens when...

  • On both devices, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth are turned on without Personal Hotspot on,
  • The other person's device is nearby, within Bluetooth and Wi-Fi range.
  • Signed into iCloud with your Apple ID.
  • Remove this --> Then if the email address you use for your Apple ID is saved in the other person's Contacts. And you have their email address saved in your Contacts.
