I have no problem with pic. in (Contacts)
My problem is how to make that pic shown in (Recents).

How to make it shown by default?!!

There is no built-in way to show contact profile pictures in Recents in Android 11 and later. However, there are a few workarounds that you can use:

Use a third-party app: There are a number of third-party apps available on the Google Play Store that can show contact profile pictures in Recents. Some popular options include:

Recents+

CallApp

TrueCaller

Use a custom launcher: Some custom launchers, such as Nova Launcher and Lawnchair Launcher, allow you to show contact profile pictures in Recents. To do this in Nova Launcher, follow these steps:

Open Nova Launcher settings.

Tap on "Desktop."

Scroll down to "Recent apps" and tap on it.

Under "Layout," tap on "Contact grid."

Tap on the "Show contact photos" toggle to turn it on.

Once you have enabled contact profile pictures in Recents, you will be able to see them by opening the Recents menu and swiping to the right.

Please note that some of the third-party apps mentioned above may require additional permissions or in-app purchases.
