Messenger app icon missing from contact info

[Android Central Question]

Hi,

I used to have, in my Galaxy S20, messenger app icons, such as WhatsApp and Telegram so that I could launch the app right from the contact info.

I switched to S22, and the app shortcuts are gone!

Any ideas?

Are these apps allowed to access your contacts?

Also try to install another contacts app, like Google Contacts, and see if they appear there. If they do appear, it may be a settings issue, sync issue or bug with the Samsung Contacts app. If so, also try to manually trigger a contacts sync.
