How to enable location sharing on Apple Watch
You can keep your iPhone in your pocket or at home if you have the cellular Apple Watch model and share your current location with your wearable in just a few taps. But first, you have to enable the feature on your Apple Watch.
How to share your location with Apple Watch using Find People
The Find People app on Apple Watch isn’t just for locating others. You can use it to share your own location with family or friends. Your friend should then receive your location. They can tap to view it and then tap again to get directions to their spot using the Maps app.
Send your location using Messages from Apple Watch
If you’re already conversing with the person you want to share your location with, you can do so using the Messages app. Like the Find People method above, your location is then sent to your pal, which they can view using Apple Maps on their own device.
How to stop sharing your location on Apple Watch
When you want to stop sharing your location, you can do so in a couple of different ways.
If you shared your spot using Find People, reopen the app and select the person you’re sharing with. Scroll down and toggle off Share My Location. To stop sharing your location completely, open the Settings app→ select Privacy & Security → pick Location Services → toggle Share My Location.
Sharing is caring… Your Apple Watch gives you a quick and easy way to share your current location. Whether for safety, fun or just as an FYI, you can send your spot to a friend or family member in seconds. Will you give this feature a try?
