What happened to Siri suggested recent contacts when swiped right

WWhat happened to Siri suggested recent contacts. Not my favorites on widget I can go to my favorites for that. I used to be able to swipe to right from home screen and Siri would have recently or mostly used contacts weather by phone or text. It changed throughout the day so I could just swipe and recontact them easily without going to phone book or favorites?

The link provided allows you to find Siri suggested apps, not recent contacts. If you click on contacts in the suggested apps, it only brings you to your full address book. This is a huge disappoint with the new iOS 10.2 update. Not only is it frustrating, but it also makes it more time consuming and less safe to use your phone.

Hi delchris,

I understand that you are unable to find your Siri suggested recent contacts on your iPhone. I know it's nice to be able to easily find your recent contacts, so I'm happy to help.

Siri suggestions are still around! You can find out more about this feature and other search features here:
Use Search on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

To ensure that this feature is working for you, make sure Siri Suggestions is turned on under Settings > General > Spotlight Search.

Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities. Cheers!
