Location on child’s iPhone How can I lock location from getting turned off on my child’s phone? I can normally see it in “Find My”, but it wouldn’t show up the other day and I’m not sure why. I know sometimes he turns off cellular data to save it, but I don’t know if that would turn off his location?

📡 How to disable iPad location on Find My Friends but not iPhone Hello, My friend wants to track where I am, that way he can estimate when I will be home. However, when he tries to track my location using the "Find My" app, it only updates my iPad which is resting at home charging. He cannot see my iPhone location unfortunately. The iPad location always seems to take priority over the iPhone location. How can I disable Find My Location on the iPad so that way only the iPhone is tracked?

Location Sharing Settings My boyfriend and I have each others location shared indefinitely. Sometimes, his location will go silent and when I click on the map it says “ no location found”. Does this indicate he has turned off his phone/wifi or would he have to also go into his location services and temporarily “turn it off” OR go into the “find my” app and turn it off etc. All feedback is appreciated please and ty! 😊
