Resolved Contact Photos Getting Switched After iOS 17

[TheBruno]

My wife's phone (iPhone 15 Plus) and my phone (iPhone 12) are swapping photos somehow. Let me explain.

I notice when I login to my Mac each day, my avatar is the one my wife uses. I also see my (her) avatar on my phone in Messages and in Contacts.

I try to switch the photos back on my Mac or my iPhone, but it always ends up getting switched to hers. I didn't have this problem prior to iOS 17, but now I can't seem to find a way to fix it.

Does anyone have suggestions I might try? Thank you in advance!

Finally figured it out on my own. In case anyone seems to have a similar problem, here's what I did:

1) My wife's contact was set as My Card on my phone. I removed her as My Card by tapping and holding on her Contact Name in my Contacts app.

2) I setup my own Contacts as My Card using the same tap and hold method.

I don't remember this ever happening before, so I'm not even sure how it happened or why iOS 17 triggered it.

My Contact photo is not correctly displaying, and my Contact Poster when I call my wife.

Good luck to anyone with trying to solve a similar problem!
