Do you know of a way to share your location with family members. I currently use Google maps because my family has both Android and iOS devices so preferably something cross platform. Thanks for your help.

    HomeAssistant, it has a “companion app” for android and ios. Once the app is installed on everyone’s phone you can see real time the device location.

      I’ve never gotten this to work with iOS devices for several years now. Yes, I’ve made sure that background app refresh is permitted, location services are on, etc.

        That’s weird. My wife uses an iPhone and it works flawlessly, and I don’t think any specific configuration was required.
