Boyfriend is still tracking my location. How does he do this I changed my password and logged everyone out when I did that. We are on same network and both have iPhones. How is he doing this and he is computer illiterate so what am I missing here?

I don’t think there is any type of program he is using besides the trackmy app. How is he able to see this. I turned off location sharing awhile back.

It would appear that you need to upgrade the “boyfriend” model in use here. This model is seemingly malfunctioning, as a properly-operating model would both not do this without permission, and would explain how this is happening.


As for your question, here is the Apple description of how the Apple Find My location tracking works: Checklist: If you want to make sure no one else can see your location - Apple Support


There can be other apps installed that can be configured to share location. See Settings > Privacy > Location Services for the list of apps that can access your location, and ensure all of those apps are recognized and as you expect.

I will like to know if mi girl is tracking me too on a gps or a tracking app please I think she is


For the Apple Find My app, see above.


For an external GPS tracker (and not AirTags), I’m aware of no good way to locate such a tracker, save by physically locating it.


Various cellular-based GPS trackers are readily available.


AirTags reports itself to nearby Apple devices, and to Android devices with the Apple AirTags-detection app installed.
