Q: When adding friend in Find my Friends, name is greyed out and has a question mark.

Why does find my friends place a question mark on the name when trying to add a friend. It does not send request to person, even though it says it is. Location services it turned on and find my friens locator is on, as well.

    They should still get an email from Find My Friends.  I don't know if this has changed in iOS 7, but I did find a work around before the update.  In the invitation email, click and hold on the accept.  Copy that link and then paste into Safari.  Safari then opens up Find My Friends.  Let me know if this works.
