Wrong location on find my friends

The people I have my location shared with have showed me how my location is being shared incorrectly. It will show me completely on the other side of town, even when I’ve never been to these places. It not like it’s showing where I was earlier but places I’ve never been. How can I fix this?

Hi Alexishicks33,


Welcome to Apple Support Communities. We understand that incorrect locations are being shown on your friends devices with location sharing enable on your iPhone. We know what a great feature location sharing is; we'd like to help. We suggest trying these steps first:



We also suggest reviewing the information in the following resource, starting with the section titled "How your device uses Location Services": About privacy and Location Services in iOS and iPadOS



Take some time to test for the behavior and let us know what you find.



Best Regards.
