I need to be away from my phone for a few hours, and I'm wondering if powering it off will stop Family Sharing or the Find My location services. Can anyone help clarify?

Yes, your family can still see your location even if your phone is turned off. Just a heads up, this isn't really the best place to discuss hiding your location.

Nope, powering off your phone doesn't stop Family Sharing. Your location can still be tracked even when the phone is off.
