I cannot seem to share my location with my wife, but I can see her location.

I cannot seem to share my location with some friends or my wife. I can see them on "Find My".

When I press the "Share my location" blue text in Find My app, it comes up with a short list of my contacts in blue. But neither my friend nor wife appear on this list. If I press + to add, add them and press send, it says "Share My Location Disabled" But its not. If i press OK it says you started sharing your location with "phone number". But it doesn't.

I am using IOS 13.5.1 on an iPhone XS, as is my wife.


Any suggestions?


iPhone XS, iOS 13

I have issues with my location also ! When I go to buy cigarettes and want to use the mobile coupons at the store (7-11, smoke shop) When I have to choose the store(location) where I want to redeem the coupon, my iphone XR says that I must be in the store to redeem.


It's frustrating me and costing me money every week because due to my phone not knowing that I already am 'AT THE STORE' it doesn't allow me to redeem the weekly mobile coupons.


Could location issues be related to the speed/the signal, or what?


It concerns me that my iphone XR has trouble knowing my location. Hope someone replies

with some helpful advice.
