iOS 26 - Shared photos library icon not showing in Camera app

With iOS 26, I no longer see the shared library icon in the camera app on my iPhone 15 Pro. It is showing on my wife’s iPhone 15. I can see shared photos in my library, but don’t have the control in my camera app. I have turned off iCloud Photos and sharing library and back on again twice. It still is not showing on my phone’s camera. Any suggestions or is this an iOS bug? Thanks

iPhone 15 Pro, iOS 26

Well, third time was the charm. I turned off iCloud photo syncing, and shared photo library, reset phone, waited a while, then turned back on and the shared library icon was back in the camera.
