Weird bug!

[Apple blogger]

I just encountered with a very weird bug, don't know if it's a bug..

When I was in messages, and composing a new messages, I found that I was able to see contacts which I didn't have on my phone... Meaning the old contacts which I deleted ages ago!

Besides that I could select contacts which are not even mine! May be my fathers, and my cousin!
We all use different apple IDs .. But the only recent thing we have done is that we added each other in find my friends...

When I asked my cousin, he could see only his own contacts on his phone, but I could see my old deleted contacts, some of my cousins contacts, and most of my fathers contacts, in addition to my own..

I even had the option to remove these contacts right from the messages app itself, I'll post screen by screen shots .. I don't know how this happend.. I even restored my phone and restored from my old backup,(5 days old) but still happens..

Any ideas?

Why would it? What relationship does it have to that?

Sorry if I misunderstood but isn't find my friends share your friends contacts, or at least that's what it sounded like.

Just being able to share location essentially.

Are you syncing Facebook contacts?

These arnt my Facebook contacts, and no I'm not.. As said originally they are mostly my fathers and my cousins and my old deleted contacts and some unknown contacts

Are you syncing Twitter contacts?

It is a history of recent interactions which can be cleared by tapping on the ( i ) and hitting Remove From Recents.

P.S. You should remove the screen shot showing your recent contact's numbers and email
