WhatsApp is not an Apple product. Contact the app developer here --> App Support or WhatsApp FAQ  Or Restoring your chat history - WhatsApp FAQ or Contact WhatsApp

It might depend on the Whatsapp version of your sender (for iOS or for Android) and/or the method they use to comunicate their position.

In iOS version there's a specific "+" sign (at bottom left corner) when you want to comunicate your location (and it works fine since the correspondent can open the map using Google Maps. Not sure it's the same thing in Android.

For further doubts, contact Whatsapp support team about that.
