To ensure privacy and control, Find My Friends allows you to hide your location at any time with a simple switch. This gives you the flexibility to determine when you want to be followed and when you don't.

Another handy feature of Find My Friends is the ability to set up location-based alerts.

You can also customize alerts to inform friends about changes in your location.

With Find My Friends, you have the convenience of sharing your location from any of your iOS devices. This means you can choose the device that you have with you most often, ensuring that you're always connected. If you own an Apple Watch with cellular capability, Find My Friends will even switch your location to your watch when you're away from your iPhone.

For optimal location accuracy and notification performance, it's recommended to have Wi-Fi enabled on your device.
