Since Private Share merged with Quick Share the indication that used to appear next to a Galaxy compatible contact has disappeared. Now there no way of knowing which contact has a device that can receive file from private share. Instead, you just send a text message to any contact you click.

 

Please tell how to determine who has a compatible device that can receive files using the Private Share function within Quick Share

 Hey there! Private Share is only compatible with Samsung Galaxy smartphones running Android P or higher, meaning it works exclusively on recent Samsung mobile devices like the Galaxy S21 series, Galaxy Z Fold3, and Galaxy Z Flip3, and cannot be used on tablets, PCs, or non-Samsung phones!

This is not what I'm asking. The private share application previously identified contacts with compatible Galaxy devices. Is there a mechanism within my Galaxy phone to identify contacts also utilizing compatible Galaxy devices? 
To clarify, how can I determine which contacts can receive private shares without individually verifying each contact's phone model? This is critical to the functionality of this niche feature; removing it would be completely bonkerz!
