iPhone 17 Pro's Find My not showing friends' locations after iOS 26 update

so I just upgraded my phone to the iPhone 17 pro and updated to the iOS 26. I transferred all my data but now find my doesn’t seem to be working properly. My friends can still see my location but I can no longer see theirs. I tried restarting my phone and tried to remove and add the people I was sharing my location with but it still doesn’t work.

Friend had this issue, this is what fixed it:


Go to Settings > General > Transfer or Reset iPhone > Reset > Reset Location & Privacy


As stated, this will reset Location & Privacy settings, but it did fix the 'no location found' issue. Hope this helps!

After getting a new iPhone 17 with iOS26, my children's locations were not showing, just saying No Location. I did everything suggested (deleting, resetting..etc.) and nothing helped. Then my son called me to try and help. As I was talking to him I thought I would check again his location through his message profile, and now he was showing up. I got off the line to confirm in the FindMy app, and there he was but my daughter's phone was still No location. So I had my daughter call me, and after about a minute on the phone with her, now her location was showing. In short, what worked for me was: them calling into my new number and staying on the line for several minutes.

We purchased two iPhones 17 pro max, and the ‘find my’ isn’t updating correctly. We see friends on our old 14pros and our iPads, but not all are showing on the new phones. One in particular has a verison phone plan vs we have Att. Don’t see how that would cause the issue however. It’s been 48 hours and they still show ‘no location found”. We called support yesterday, and were elevated to a higher level but haven’t received callback
