Show or Hide Contact Photos in Messages

With iOS 9 Apple added contact photos to conversations in iMessage. With iOS 9 there was no way to turn this feature off, but now Apple is allowing users to toggle this option in Settings.

Go to Settings -> Messages -> Show Contact Photos -> Off.

After you turn this off you will no longer see photos or initials in the Messages main screen on your iPhone.

    Aside from a few bug fixes, this whole thing looks like a giant ho hum! Sorry I wasted the time to page through it the “expose.”

    I have 2 iPhone 6 and 1 iPhone 6 Plus. After downloading and installing ios9.1, all 3 iPhones became slow, unable to connect to wifi, opening the settings and open the wifi, it gets stuck. When someone calls and hang up phone continues ringing. After a phone call, the phone get hang… Have to restart. I think iOS 9.1 screws up all my phones and my faith and trust for Apple products. I hope Apple Inc can get me a reply how to fix this!

    If this release is anything like my experience with 9.0.2, I think I’ll wait for 9.1.1. Graphics became sluggish, battery life got a little worse, not better as advertised, and Game Center WILL NOT TURN OFF. And seriously, Apple, emoji??? How about fixing the problems that exist rather than giving us the middle finger?

    This is one of the most screwed up update for iPhone 5 users. Hate the iOS 9.1 update apple should try and not make life miserable for users on old devices

    I have updated on a 4s. Big mistake. I haven’t lost anything and think the programme is good,but my phone gets un-responsive it sticks and turns itself off. Have missed calls because I can’t swipe! Basically I have no more room left for the programs to work??
