Asked By CuriousCat92 On

I'm looking for ways to hide my location from my parents since we have Family Sharing enabled. Switching devices isn't a good option for me because Family Sharing shows all locations. Could I forward calls and messages to a burner phone so I can leave my phone where I'm supposed to be? I'm 19 and currently in college, relying on my parents for everything, so buying my own phone or plan isn't feasible right now. Any advice would really help!

If you can manage a burner phone, perhaps think about your own phone line instead. They really serve the same purpose, so it's worth considering!

You might want to switch to another device and disable the 'Find My' function on your iPhone. Just a heads up, though—turning off 'Find My' could affect your AppleCare coverage. If you do this, your phone will stop showing up on maps, and theft coverage won't apply either.

This request seems pretty common in college. Just out of curiosity, why do you feel the need to ask again? It's a similar question that pops up often!
