Focus Status Not Showing to Others When I text people, I can see the "X has notifications silenced" message if they have their focus mode on. However, when I turn my focus mode on, I asked my friends if they get that same message and they said they did not. I have it on in the Messages settings, I have it shared across devices, I have the status option turned on, and basically every other possible option to turn on the status. I am updated to the latest iOS which is 16.6 at the time of posting. My friend is also updated to the latest version. I have tried restarting my phone multiple times but that still does not work. I don't understand why I can see when others have their focus mode on but when I turn mine on, it does not show them that my notifications are silenced.

Focus Status won’t share to others in Messages My Focus status worked maybe a year ago and then stopped after a certain update. My Focus mode is turned on, it’s shared across all devices, there are no allowed apps, and everything that seems like it should be toggled on is. I have been testing this with another device I own, but I see no notification that my focus status is turned on. This is frustrating because another friend, also with an updated iPhone, has a focus that is that works. What do I need to do, can anyone help?

My Focus status not showing in messages I have shared status and I have toggled the button so my friends and family know that I can't get the phone at certain times. Despite giving permission to Focus by sharing status no one can see the status. What can I do?
