I am going on a trip and I wanted to take my watch with me. I am trying to send people my series 4 watch info..
1) Go to find people
2) I click allow once
3) It gives me a list of people who I think can track my location already
4) Scroll down and click the share my location + button
5) I pick a person, who is in the same house as me just to test it out- but it doesn't actually work!
Is there something I am doing wrong?
Apple Watch Series 4, watchOS 8
Hi Bmaver96,
Those are the correct steps for sharing a location, are you also provided a time frame for how long you wish to share the information? If so, double-check that your Apple Watch is connected to Wi-Fi, cellular data or both when sending the request. Also, test sending from your paired iPhone. Share your location with your family
Additionally, double-check all steps and settings here are followed: View a friend’s location with Apple Watch and Find friends and share your location with Find My
If the issue continues, try a normal restart of both your Apple Watch and paired iPhone to test.
Best.
