Family member missing from Find My devices tab

I have a family consisting of me, mom, my son, and my daughter. When I open the Find My app, we are all listed in the People tab. On the devices tab, my sons name doesn’t even show up. How can I fix this behavior?

Family devices missing from find my Hi all, recently I've been trying to solve an issue of one of my family member's devices not being visible at all from find my, despite all location sharing settings being turned on in their own settings. Their name entry in the 'Devices' section of find my is completely missing, and their account is still there in the 'People' section, but it only shows 'Not Sharing Location'. Does anyone have any idea how to fix this sort of problem? I've tried unlinking and relinking them to the family but that didn't change anything either...

In 13.0, I still can't find the other members of my family. How do I do that? In 13.0, since 'Find My Friends' is gone, I can't find the other members of my family. How do I do that? I followed the instructions I found on Apple's website, but it doesn't tell me how to locate my family members after I've set everything up. Nothing has changed in my settings since the update from 12.4.1.

If your family members have iOS 13 or later, they can see your location in the Find My app. If they have watchOS 6, they can see your location in the Find People app. And you can see where they're located too.

Crisis averted. Apparently my son had find my iPhone turned off. It is interesting thought that I could still see his location via the people tab.
