Location Services on my iPhone 12 is greyed out for Find My

Location Services on my iPhone 12 is greyed out for Find My. All notifications in this app currently go to my iPad. Can I change my location for this ? I’ve restarted my phone/ force started and nothing changes. Is there a fix for this please as I don’t always carry my iPad.

"Find My: Thank you. I really want to know is how do I change my location in Apple ID. It’s currently using my iPad and I want to change it to my iPhone as I don’t normally carry my iPad around.

New iCloud Session:

If you all of your devices are showing clothe correct location, and this device is not, then log out of iCloud on it, and then log back in.


Have You Relocated?:

Are you saying that you’ve related to a deferent country/region?


If So, Zero-Out the Balance:

If so, you need to zero-out your balance in your Apple Account. To do this, either (A.)contact Apple Support, asking the Apple Rep to do so, or (B.)purchase something that is more than what it your account balance.


IMPORTANT:

If Not, and you are Just Visiting, Let it Be: Because, resetting your location to a different one, all purchases will

be gone.
