Share your location in Find My on iPad

Before you can use the Find My app to share your location with friends, you need to set up location sharing.

Note: If you set up location sharing and others still can’t see your location, make sure Location Services is on in Settings > Privacy > Location Services > Find My. See Control the location information you share on iPad.

Set up location sharing

In the Find My app, tap Me at the bottom-left side of the screen, then turn on Share My Location.
The device sharing your location appears below My Location.
If your iPad isn’t currently sharing your location, scroll to the bottom, then tap Use This iPad as My Location.

Note: You can share your location from an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. To share your location from another device, open Find My on the device and change your location to that device.

You can also change your location sharing settings in Settings > [your name] > Find My.

To add a new label, tap Add Custom Label, enter a name, then tap Done.
