Do you want to remove suggested contacts when sharing photos on iPhone on iOS 15 & 16? Here learn how to remove contacts from the share sheet on iPhone [iOS 15 & 16]. Meanwhile, when sharing any photos on your iPhone some of your contacts appears on the top of the sharing sheet so if you see that unnecessary then we will provide you with some easy steps to do.

OS has a Share Sheet that allows you to easily share messages, links, movies, notes, and other items. I also use the Share Sheet regularly in Safari to execute shortcuts, save photos, and identify text on a website, among other things. If you’ve used the Share Sheet, you’ll notice that Siri’s suggested contacts dominate the top. That list, however, is not always accurate and rarely useful.

Suggestions are generated using on-device intelligence and are mostly based on how you use the phone. 
Whether you wish to remove single contact recommendation or all contact suggestions at once from the Share Sheet, this guide will assist you in removing contact from the Share Sheet suggestions on iPhone.

You may, however, delete the whole Siri suggested contacts row from the iOS Share Sheet.
