Location sharing in Find my

[seanlecroix]

I recently did an experiment with my wife’s phone and Apple Watch and I turned off location sharing. I wanted to verify that I can’t see her location. When I go to look at her location it sometimes says no location found, but sometimes it will locate her after a little while and then it can go back to saying no location found, and eventually find her again. When I look at her devices, both her phone and Apple Watch say “not sharing location”. I need to be able to hide my location to plan a surprise party but i need to understand what’s happening here so I don’t do something foolish and ruin the surprise. any insight will be appreciated.

Turning off Location Services in Settings (the app) - Privacy & Security will make sure your location is not shared.
