There are a few ways to stop sharing your location on iPhone without the other person knowing.
- One way is to turn off location services for specific apps. This can be done in the Settings app under Privacy > Location Services.

- Tap the People icon.
- Select the contact from the list, then tap Stop Sharing My Location.
How do I turn off location services for specific apps on my iPhone?

- Go to Settings > Privacy > Location Services.
- Scroll down, then tap an app.

How do I hide my location on my iPhone from others?
There are several ways to prevent others from seeing your location:
- Turn off Location Services: This will prevent all apps and features from using your location, including Find My Friends.
- Sign out of Find My Friends: If you don’t want anyone to know where you are, sign out of Find My Friends. This will also remove all your friends from the app.
- Hide your location with Invisible mode: With this feature, you can appear to other users as if you’re not signed in to Find My Friends. Only people who already have your permission can see your location.
Can people see my location if I have Location Services turned off on my iPhone?
No, but turning off Location Services only prevents apps and features from using your location. If someone has another way to get your location, such as through your email or phone number, they may be able to find you even if Location Services is turned off.
How do I know if someone is tracking my iPhone location?
The best way to tell if someone is tracking your iPhone is to check the Find My app. If you see a device listed there, it means someone else has added it and is tracking its location. You can also check for signs of tracking by looking at your device’s battery life and data usage.
What happens if I delete someone from Find My Friends?
If you delete someone from Find My Friends, they will be removed from your list of friends and you will no longer be able to track their location.
However, they may still be able to see your location if they have another way of getting it (such as through your email or phone number).
Will disabling location services on my iPhone affect battery life?
Yes, disabling Location Services can slightly improve battery life because your device won’t need to power up the GPS hardware as often.
