when using do not disturb on details, does this pause my location?

Under details on a text message, if I switch on do not disturb, will this pause my location until switched back off?

Thanks, trying to find a way to pause my location rather than turn off the share location facility either in find my friends or under details

Do Not Disturb doesn't have anything to do with locaton services.

Why is it harder to tap Stop Sharing under details than it is to enable DND? I'm not clear on why just tapping Stop Sharing doesn't work.

Yes, as of 2017 it appears that it does temporarily turn off location sharing.

Hey Alli, how were you able to determine this? I cannot find any other forums or discussions confirming it, but I believe you're absolutely right!

Hey Alli and mt1992, when my friends have DND on, their locations in the Find Friends app are approximated. I too have looked but cannot find anything.
