Shared location

Does the share location feature between users get disabled in low power mode. i.e. if my phone goes to low power mode and can people I constantly share my location with still see it?

iPhone 13 Pro Max, iOS 15

Low Power Mode does not affect Location Sharing feature. If you share your location with others, then they will continue to see your location. More information below:

  • 5G (except for video streaming) on iPhone 12 models1
