Can my child share their location with me but not have access to my location?

I want to be able to locate my daughter but I don’t want her to have access to my location.

Location sharing is one way only. Her sharing her own location does not in any way imply she can see yours.


When using Location Sharing through Family Sharing, the Family Organizer's Location is automatically shared the first time its set up, but can be turned off after that as required.
