Someone shared their details with you. Usually they'd like yours too. After you claim a card, Deeta opens their contact — and when you close it, Deeta offers to send yours back. One tap, no typing.
How it works
-
Claim a card. See Claiming a card when you already have Deeta.
-
Close their contact. Deeta offers:
You just added [name]'s deets — send them yours? Reuses your existing share path — nothing's sent until you choose.
-
Tap Share Back, or Not Now.
-
Choose which of your details to send, and how to send it. If you send by iMessage and their card included a phone number or email, the message is already addressed to them.
Nothing's sent until you choose — the prompt just starts the ordinary share flow with the right person already in mind.
Choosing what to send
You're not obliged to send everything. Pick the set that fits — your work details for a colleague, personal ones for a friend. See Sharing your own card.
If you dismiss it
Nothing happens, and you won't be asked again for that card. If they send you another card later, Deeta offers again.
You can still send them your card any time: open the My Deets tab, tap Share my deets, and send the link to them.
Not from their contact page. The Share [their name] button on someone's page forwards their details to a third person — it doesn't send them yours. To share your own card, always start from My Deets.
Other times you'll see a similar offer
-
After you save a card that came from another app — see Receiving a card from another app.
-
After you stop sending live updates to someone: You've stopped updating [name]. Send them your deets?
Troubleshooting
I dismissed it by accident. Open My Deets and tap Share my deets, then send the link to that person.
I don't have a card set up yet. Open the My Deets tab and add your details. Your card starts with the name you gave during setup — you may just need to fill it in.
The prompt didn't appear. It appears once for each card you claim, after you close their contact. It doesn't appear if the claim added nothing new — for example, if you already had everything they shared. Share from My Deets instead.
I sent the wrong set of details. Go to Settings → Shared links, revoke that share, and send a new one. See Revoking a share.
Questions
Do I have to share back? No. It's an offer, and declining has no other effect.
Will they know I declined? No. They're told nothing either way.
Can I share back later? Yes — from My Deets, any time.
Is what I send the same as what they sent me? Not necessarily. You each choose what to include, independently — including whether it keeps updating. See Live Updates.
