Q: My sons phone says that he stopped sharing his location with me. Is the only way for that to happen is if he actually turns off his location or could it have been a glitch?

I Received a txt saying that my sons phone has stopped sharing his location with me thru his "find friends" app. COULD this possibly be a glitch or did he turn off his location sharing ?

    There only reason I can imagine that you would not be able to see the location of your son's phone is if he manually turned off location services. iPhone has a dedicated AGPS chip, meaning that location services work even in the event that there is an absence of cellular data. I have not yet heard of or encountered a glitch that would randomly disable location services without user intention. Best of luck to you.
