find my glitch

Every time I try to delete a contact off of find my, it instantly reappears and is constantly trying to load a location that isn’t there. The location is deleted in the settings app but the find my app won’t delete the contact when hitting the trash button, is there a way this can be fixed ?

Apple Find My keeps disconnecting my contact It seems everyone 1 to 3 days, my contact has to re-share their location with me. I do not have difficulty finding the phones of other members of that household. It is important that this connection stays intact. I use it to keep track of my elderly parent. They swear they are not changing the setting. Their phone is always on, their location services is on, and they are connected to wi-fi. Help!

Cannot remove specific contact from Find My This is the second time I'm coming back to this problem as since it occurred it's still not addressed. There is a specific contact that cannot be deleted from Find My (Friends). I want to clarify from the beginning that this is neither a network issue nor a device issue since I have been trying to delete this specific person for 2 years almost, and since then I've changed many devices. Furthermore I work on software engineering for more than 10 years, consisting me capable to explore the issue throughout. A copy of the request header and the response body I debugged is following. It's a 500 error for some reason, but only when deleting this specific contact. "commandResponse": { "statusCode": "500" }, (For obvious reasons I masked the sensitive fields) POST /fmipservice/friends/<masked>/<masked>/removeFollowing HTTP/1.1 { "serverContext": { "minCallbackIntervalInMS": 1000, "res": null, "clientId": "<masked>", "showAirDropImportViewOniCloudAlert": true, "authToken": "<masked>", "maxCallbackIntervalInMS": 5000, "prsId": <masked>, "callbackTimeoutIntervalInMS": 0, "heartbeatIntervalInSec": 543600, "transientDataContext": { "0": <masked>, "1": 0, "2": <masked>, "3": <masked>, "4": <masked> }, "sendMyLocation": true, "notificationToken": null, "iterationNumber": 15 }, "modelVersion": "1", "fetchStatus": "200", "dataContext": { "0": <masked>, "1": <masked>, "2": <masked>, "5": <masked>, "6": <masked>, "8": <masked>, "9": "<masked>", "10": <masked>, "11": <masked>, "12": <masked>, "13": <masked>, "18": <masked>, "19": <masked>, "20": <masked>, "21": <masked>, "22": <masked> }, "commandResponse": { "statusCode": "500" }, "locations": [ { "locationStatus": null, "location": null, "id": "<masked>", "status": null } ], "locateInProgress": [ { "id": "<masked>", "status": "none" }, { "id": "<masked>", "status": "none" } ] }

Unable to stop sharing location. I wish to stop sharing location with a specific contact on “find my” I am well aware of how to do it. With any other contacts I am sharing location with I simply tap the red “stop sharing my location” and it stops and becomes blue “share my location” however, with this one contact it will not stop sharing. Sometimes it flicks to the blue writing but then immediately flicks back to the red “stop sharing your location” I had this contact blocked and tried unblocking them but thy did not work. It is likely they have also blocked me but this is a serious problem! I need to be able to stop sharing my location with them and know it has worked!! Again… it works perfectly with anyone else I have shared location with. This needs sorting immediately
