Why can't my friends see my location on my iPhone?
Asked by

I'm using an iPhone 15 Pro with iOS 18.5, and I've been trying to share my location with friends and family. Despite having location services turned on and allowing 'Find My' to track my precise location, they keep seeing "no location found". I've shared my location multiple times, but nothing seems to improve the situation. Does anyone know why this might be happening?

Just a heads up, you're on a beta version of iOS. Beta versions can introduce various problems, including issues with location sharing. It's usually best to use stable releases for daily use.

Do you have multiple Apple devices? If so, check if your iPhone shows "this device" next to "My Location" in your Settings under Privacy & Security, Location Services, and also under your Apple Account in Find My. This can sometimes get misconfigured if you have more than one device.

Make sure you go into the Find My app, tap on 'Me' at the bottom right, and verify that 'Share My Location' is enabled. Sometimes it can get toggled off without you realizing it.
