"No location found" for friend in Find My on iPhone

A few weeks ago, I was able to see my friend's FIND MY location but just last week, even when his location settings and mobile data settings are all on, I still couldn't see his location unless he open the app then I would be able to see but once he closes his app, I wont be able to locate him anymore. The states on my side would show that there is "no location found" but on his side, he could see mine very clearly even if I have close my app. Why is this and how could we slove this? Because it doesn't make sense that it was working very well a few weeks ago but then last week it just stopped when none of us pressed anything towards the FIND MY app.

So. Read all the replies. Tried most of them. No bueno. Sat down with my iphone11 and iPad to compare. Eureka! Buried in privacy—> location services —> system services—> share my location!! (Again!)


Now, my wife can stalk me again...yeah, for better or worse. Hope that helps

I spent an hour on the phone with Apple Support technicians. It was a pleasant session, even though the issue was not resolve. The second technician collected some analytical data to send to their engineers. He said he will follow up with me on Wednesday. To my surprise, a moment later after the conversation, the issue on “Find My” was resolved. All our phones are now linked on Find My.

Welcome Coxy68 - The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh, I have just reviewed the 14.4 release notes - you are right, no mention of issue acknowledgement or pending fix for "Find My". b4uabb has mentioned Apple awareness of "Find My" current issues, looking forward to his Upcoming Apple response.


Interesting to note Android world wide sales are back on an upward sales trend - Louis Rossman may have another chuckle when he reviews the upcoming update - lol


iOS 14.4 includes the following improvements for your iPhone:

  • Notifications for when the camera on your iPhone is unable to be verified as a new, genuine Apple camera in iPhone 12, iPhone 12 mini, iPhone 12 Pro, and iPhone 12 Pro Max

Thank you b4uabb for your response and further to (No Location Found On Find MY). As previously mentioned - all efforts have been exhausted regarding my issue with Find My. Your suggestions has been attempted numerous times from both ends and all other online and www suggestions fail for me - My 6s with iOS 14.3 {Find My} had worked in the past (prior to upgrading to 14.3), and my friend currently with 12 Pro iOS 14.1 can see me in their Find My, however I cannot see them. Do I downgrade my 6s IOS to 14.1 to resolve or wait for Apple to fix in the next iOS release?


I believe this is likely Apples way to slowly end its support life for the 6s, and Apples subtle way of wanting me to upgrade to newer product. I am a very loyal Apple consumer and reasonably savvy with my devise. "Find My/ previously Find my Friends", does not work after upgrading to 14.3.


I remain eager to employ any solution/fix that I have not already attempted thus far.


Thank you all for your support
