My son’s find my iPhone only shows him at home no matter where he is located. Why?

I have checked all settings I could think of and no matter where he is it defaults to our home. We use Life360 and that location is accurate which leaves me perplexed. Any ideas?

iPhone 12

Does it just say "last location"? If that's what it says it could be it's not getting updated information for him since he was in the house. Do you live in the mountains or a large city?

contact Apple, click here --> Choose your country or region - Official Apple Support

Select your country, then a product. If you don't see one that handles your issue then keep experimenting with selections until you reach one that gets you a chat session or a telephone call and get the representative to redirect you.
