Hey Tech-Support Tumblr, I could use your help as searching online has failed me.
Is there a way to turn off Google matching phone numbers to profiles?
Example One: last week when my food delivery arrived, I noticed that instead of a random number texting me 'food is here' my Android phone told me the name of the person texting and provided an image of who I can only imagine to have been his daughter. I do not want to know his name. I do not want to know what his daughter looks like.
Example Two: My cousin added me to a group chat of her and friends to tell us about an event. One of the women, whose number I didn't recognize, now has a name attached and a profile photo of her face. She's a stranger. I would have happily let her remain as such.
This doesn't seem to be consistent, but I hate it and want to turn it off. I don't want to block texts from these legit numbers; I just want to only know the numbers. And I don't want my information to show up when I text someone in an one-off exchange either. Does anyone know how to do that?
Would appreciate a reblog to find a tumblr tech wizard.
