Tracking my phone?

Hello. Are there any slick ways a person can track your phone while putting their contact info in your phone? Ways that are not too obvious? I’m not too tech savvy at all, and have no clue what to look for.

thanks!

iPhone 11, iOS 16

No, no one can track your iPhone by putting their contact information in the Contact app. People can follow you in the Find app, but you have to approve it yourself. You can check if you follow someone and if someone follows you here in the Find app.


Open the Find app, tap the People button at the bottom. If you see a contact in the list who follows you, swipe from right to left and delete the person. The person will then not be able to see your location and must request to see it. You can just reject it if it happens.
