Why do messages appear on my phone as coming from the phone number.

[Android Central Question]

Text coming in numbers not names

After the latest update, my text messages are identified by number and not name. Tried lots of Google suggestions, no luck

Welcome to Android Central! Make sure your text app has permission to access your Contacts.

 

[Android Central Question]

When receiving texts from people in my contacts, their names do not show up, just their phone numbers. I used to see their names but about a week ago, it changed. I have a Galaxy A52 5G
