Share My Location can give other people ongoing access to where you are. That is useful for close family, trusted friends, and safety planning, but it should never be treated as a set-it-and-forget-it feature.

Audit everyone who can see your location. Remove people you do not recognize, no longer trust, or no longer need to share with. If you do not actively use location sharing, turn off Share My Location entirely.

Users can disable location sharing while still using Apple’s Find My features


Use the menu paths below on your iPhone to find the setting and apply the recommendation that fits most people.
