Hi thanks for trying to help. I’ve had help from Apple support and it seems that ‘Show related content’ in settings had been switched off. All fixed now. Thanks for trying to help.

You may want to give your iPhone time to scan your Photos Library again. Connect the iPhone with a cable to a charger (not wireless charging) and let it scan the library over night.
Does the visual lookup marker appear again?
Maybe an obvious question, but are you in a country or region and set to a language where the service is available?
iOS and iPadOS - Feature Availability - Apple
Pick a photo from library. See below.
Then tap for more information.
Yes - I had it before the latest update - 18.1.1 - and since then it has disappeared.
Thanks for that - I do know how to use Visual Look Up consistently until the latest update - since when it has disappeared.
We had to start somewhere. I’m glad to hear you were able to resolve the issue. Happy holidays!
