Hi all, I have family link set up on my sons account. The locate him function never works I have set location on and I have location accuracy on as well . It’s on an Oppo 54 but also had some problem with the Samsung A4. It’s on a 10 2degrees prepaid plan. I know a friend had same issue but when they went to a plan with skinny it started working. Any ideas of what I can try ? . I am thinking of giving him my IPhone and updating my phone as find my works fine on my wife’s iPhone on a prepaid plan

Is the device shutting down the app to save battery life? Would just need to change the battery saving options against the app for that.

Use the Life360 app instead, works well.
