Red dot on the “Me” button in find my app?

My friend is trying to share his location indefinitely with me.

He can send me his current location, but I can not see him when I look on my friends, even though he shared it with me indefinitely.


While trying to figure out the problem, he said there’s a red dot on the “Me” button on the bottom of the Find My app.


What does that red dot mean??

Why can’t his location be seen?

We went into the settings and privacy and all those sections. Everything is on.


help?

iPhone 8, iOS 13

Hi jraft, 



Thank you for reaching out to Apple Support Communities. 


From your post, it looks like your friend is having an issue with sharing their location. I want to help! When you ask about a red dot, are you talking about the red dot next to people? This article has more information about what the represents along with information on sharing location: Find friends and share your location with Find My - Apple Support


Hope that helps. 


Best Regards!
