Q: Find my Friends - Notify not working

Hi,

 

Several times I've set my FMF notify to notify me when a friend leaves or arrives at a location.

 

Never has it notified me.

 

I've often checked their location, and found they've left, or arrived at the destinations succesfully, but not once did FMF notify me!

 

I've running the latest iOS on Iphone 6 SE.

 

Thanks.

iPhone SE, iOS 9.3.4

    Hello Dalavich,


    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities. 


    I understand from your post that you are not receiving any notifications from the Find My Friends app. I know how important it is for you to get your notification of when your friends leave and arrive from their locations. The following article may help provide some insight on why you are not receiving a notification from Find My Friends:

    Your friend might be in a location with poor cellular coverage. Also, make sure your friend:

    Hi,

     

    That's not really the answer!

     

    Obviously they have signal and sharing on, as I wouldn't be able to find that they've arrived or left!

     

    And you can't tell me it's every single time without fail.

     

    I have been through all the fault finding and nothing solves the issues here.

     

    Thanks.
