Shared Contact Photo is blurry on other iPhones

Hi, I have tried restarting my phone, and my phone is up to date (16.0.3). I have an iPhone 13 Pro Max. I have tried uploading different pictures as my contact photo and they are all blurry and pixelated on my friends iPhones. Can you tell me how to fix this? (First picture is my iPhone, Second picture is friends iPhone)

Greetings, the_sarcastic_introvert.

 

Since your contact photo appears blurry to others, there are some steps you can take to isolate the issue. 


1. Take a brand new picture and immediately change your contact photo. Then test to see if the issue continues.

2. Restart your iPhone  since restarting can often help resolve unexpected behaviors. 

3. Navigate to Settings > Messages and disable Share Name and Photo. Then, enable it again and test to see how it goes. 


Let us know how it all works out!


Best wishes.
