Hello green-hill,
If you and your daughter are sharing an Apple ID, these steps will help with setting up Find My on any device you own with that ID: Set up Find My on all your devices - Apple Support.
If you have two different Apple IDs and you want to share your location with your daughter, you can do that by following these steps: Find people and share your location with Find My - Apple Support.
"Share with people
When you share your location with someone, they have the option to share their location back."
We hope this helps. Let us know if we can assist with anything else at all. Take care.
Hi green-hill,
You can notify a friend or family member of your departure or arrival. Please check out the information on the following page, which may be helpful: View a friend’s location with Apple Watch
Notify a friend of your departure or arrival
1. Open the Find People appon your Apple Watch.
2. Tap a friend, scroll down, then tap Notify [name of friend].
3. Turn on Notify [name of friend] on the next screen, then choose to notify your friend when you leave your location or arrive at their location.
If you have additional questions, or need additional assistance, please contact Apple Support for help. You may be able to reach them here: Contact Apple Support
Take care.
That process works for adding my iPhone so my daughter can see it but I haven't been able to get it to work for my Apple watch. I tried setting her up from my watch but don't have a Find My app, rather Find Devices, Find Items & Find People. I tried using those to make my watch become visible to my daughter. I don't see how...
Perhaps I'm missing something.
Please help.
Thank you.
Hi green-hill,
Looking further, the Find My app is not available for the Apple Watch.
Find people and share your location with Find My - Apple Support
The Find My app combines Find My iPhone and Find My Friends into a single app. If you need help finding it, use Search on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch or use Spotlight on your Mac.
However, if you are already sharing a location with someone, you can find their location using the Find People app on an Apple Watch.
Use Apple Watch to get directions or contact a friend - Apple Support
If you'd like to submit feedback to Apple, you can do that here:
Take care!

My objective is to have my daughter know my location based on my Apple watch, avoiding having to carry my iPhone. My watch has GPS and cellular and is paired via Bluetooth to the iPhone.
Please help.
Thank you.
