Find my phone App

What does it mean when there is a think white ring as a border around the person’s icon versus when there is just a thin black border?

I have noticed that sometimes it wont flash the green live pulse sometimes when the white border is present, but other times it will.

Also, I have read that the light blue circle, that can very in size, indicates the location being somewhere inside that circle. However, sometimes I have noticed instead of it being a large circle to indicate poor signal or no specific location, sometimes it will still be a small circle but it just bounces around. Do you know what might cause this?

Thanks for your help!

On the Find my person app. There is the gray circle

giving the approximate location of the person you are seeking. There is a different blue and pink dot also present at another location

Live: Green Pulse indicates Live feed from the device (User may be active or maybe not)

Now: Blue Ring indicates the device was last located here but currently may not be connected to the internet.

1. Live Status: When a person or device shows a "Live" status, it means that their location is being actively shared in real time. This can be useful, for example, if you're trying to meet up with someone and want to track their movement on the map.
2. Now Status: The "Now" status indicates that the person or device's location was recently updated. It means that their location information was refreshed at some point, but it may not be in real-time. The exact time of the last location update may vary.

The pic below may help you understand it better of multiple devices

Looking closely, the colored dots (3) are over a gas station, a winery, and another building. Inside the dot are a gas pump, a bunch of grapes, and a car. Each a different color. I can’t

believe that these are the only ones on the map.
