iOS16 chat group name not working

After updating to iOS16 I am not longer able to send messages using the chat group name. The chat groups are still there and I can find them doing a search, but if I type the group chat name on the send to line it does not show. This worked with iOS15.

is there a fix for this?

iPhone 13

I found this answered at another forum ant it worked for me:


Make sure that the Messages app still shows as being part of Siri & Search. Here's how to do that:


" Change search settings 


You can change the search settings to limit which apps and results appear while you're searching. Here's how:


  1. Go to Settings and tap Siri & Search.
  2. Scroll down and select an app.
  3. Then select Show App in Search, Show Content in Search, Show on Home Screen, Suggest App, or Suggest Notifications.


To turn off Siri Suggestions for all apps, go to Settings > Siri & Search, and turn off the settings you want. "
