I can't add friends on Find My iPhone

I can’t use “find my” on my iphone. I can’t add friends and they can’t add me. When i want to turn off “share my location” or “add friends” i can’t even click on it, it is some sort of grey. If I go on my ipad, i do can use the app and buttons but it doesn’t change anything, i can add a friend but they cant see me, they dont even get the invitation. Can somebody help me?
