    • In this case, it would be Location Sharing.
  5. Select Invite Family Member, and then send an invitation through iMessage, in person, or create a new child account.
    • If you're on iOS 10 or earlier, you'll just need to tap on Get Started and then follow the on-screen instructions to invite family members.
    • iOS 11 and later also has the option to invite someone in person.
  6. You can repeat the process of inviting a family member for up to six people.

How to track an iPhone or iPad with Find My iPhone and Family Sharing

You'll need to have the Find My iPhone app installed in order to track devices in your Family Sharing group. If you don't already have it, you can download it for free via the App Store. Each device must also be running iOS 8 or higher and support Family Sharing.

The only other stipulation is that everyone's devices must have granted Find My iPhone access to be tracked. You can do this by following these directions on each iPhone and iPad:

  1. Launch Settings from your Home screen.
  2. Tap your Apple ID banner at the top.
  3. Tap iCloud.

    Launch Settings, tap your Apple ID, tap iCloud

  4. Tap on Find My iPhone.
  5. Tap the switch next to Find My iPhone to turn it on (green is on).

    Tap Find My iPhone, tap the switch next to Find My iPhone

Repeat the above process with every iPhone and iPad you'd like to show up in Find My iPhone through Family Sharing.

How to track a family member's device with Find My iPhone

  3. Tap on any device in order to receive more information and track it — your own devices show up at the top, followed by everyone else's.
