Location sharing enables people to be more aware of where other people are, which is particularly useful for keeping track of family and other loved ones. Your phone can track where you are and anyone you choose to share your location with can then see where you are too. Parents, in particular, are likely to want to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.familyorbit.com\/blog\/how-to-track-your-childs-cell-phone-location-without-installing-any-app\/\" data-abc=\"true\">keep track of their children<\/a>, especially when they start to go to places independently. With location sharing, you can reduce the amount that you worry about your children and other family, thanks to the reassurance that you can check where they are if you need to.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.familyorbit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/share-location-from-iphone-to-android-2.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"960\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.familyorbit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/share-location-from-iphone-to-android-2.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4084\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.familyorbit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/share-location-from-iphone-to-android-2.jpeg 960w, https:\/\/www.familyorbit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/share-location-from-iphone-to-android-2-300x180.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.familyorbit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/share-location-from-iphone-to-android-2-768x461.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.familyorbit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/share-location-from-iphone-to-android-2-809x485.jpeg 809w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the challenges of location sharing is when two people have phones with different operating systems. iPhones use the Apple iOS operating system, whereas many other phones use the Android operating system. This presents an issue if you want to be able to share locations between phones. Phones that use the same operating system can use a tool designed for that system. For example, iPhone users can use <a href=\"https:\/\/www.familyorbit.com\/blog\/iphone-family-locator\/\" data-abc=\"true\">Find My Friends<\/a> to share and track each other&#8217;s locations. However, with an iPhone and an Android phone, it can be slightly trickier.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fortunately, there are several options that you can use if you want to share locations from an iPhone to an Android phone.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Method 1: Use Family Orbit<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The first option is to use <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/us\/app\/family-orbit-family-tracker-parental-control\/id1041685597?mt=8\" data-abc=\"true\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Family Orbit<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to share your location. Family Orbit is a parental control app that you can use to monitor your child&#8217;s phone. You can use it to share the location of an iPhone to an Android phone, with a number of useful features. It includes a real-time GPS tracker, location history, mobile geofence, and check-ins. You get a range of features on the app for your phone. The app works with iOS 9.0 or later or with Android 4.4 or later.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"580\" src=\"https:\/\/www.familyorbit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/family-orbit-1024x580.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4034\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.familyorbit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/family-orbit-1024x580.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.familyorbit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/family-orbit-300x170.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.familyorbit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/family-orbit-768x435.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.familyorbit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/family-orbit-809x458.jpg 809w, https:\/\/www.familyorbit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/family-orbit.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The real-time GPS tracker will show your child&#8217;s location on a map. You only need to install the app on the phones that you want to use, and you will be able to track your child&#8217;s movements as they move around. If you&#8217;re worried about where they might have been going or you want to check that they were where they said they were, you can also check their location history. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A mobile geofence also allows you to get a notification if your child steps outside of a set boundary with their phone. The check-in feature ensures your child can check in with you too, and contact you if there&#8217;s an emergency.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There&#8217;s no need to jailbreak any phones and you can monitor up to three devices at the same time. Plus, you get a range of other features at the same time. You can check on your child&#8217;s other activities, such as the websites they&#8217;re visiting or the apps that they download and use.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"family-orbit-banner\" style=\"background: #ffffff; color: #6b7295; text-align: center; padding: 20px; box-shadow: 0 0 10px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1); margin-bottom: 20px;\">\n    <div class=\"wrapper\" style=\"max-width: 600px; margin: 0 auto;\">\n\n        <div class=\"txt-box\" style=\"margin-top: 15px;\">\n            <div class=\"title\" style=\"font-size: 18px; font-weight: bold;\">Concerned about your child&#8217;s online safety?<\/div>\n            <div style=\"color: #6b7295; font-size: 14px;\">Try Family Orbit and monitor their phone activity.<\/div>\n        <\/div>\n\n        <a id=\"try-now-btn\" utm-medium=\"btn_banner_try_now\" class=\"button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.familyorbit.com\/signup.php\" style=\"color: #ffffff; background: #e74c3c; text-decoration: none; display: inline-block; padding: 10px 20px; margin-top: 20px; border-radius: 5px; font-weight: bold;\">TRY FAMILY ORBIT NOW<\/a>\n\n        <a id=\"demo-btn\" utm-medium=\"btn_banner_view_demo\" class=\"button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.familyorbit.app\/cp\/index.php?demo=true\" style=\"color: #ffffff; background: #3498db; text-decoration: none; display: inline-block; padding: 10px 20px; margin-top: 20px; border-radius: 5px; font-weight: bold;\">VIEW ONLINE DEMO<\/a>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Method 2: Use Scannero.io<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"466\" src=\"https:\/\/www.familyorbit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/find-a-lost-phone-with-tracking-url-1024x466.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4114\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.familyorbit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/find-a-lost-phone-with-tracking-url-1024x466.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.familyorbit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/find-a-lost-phone-with-tracking-url-300x137.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.familyorbit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/find-a-lost-phone-with-tracking-url-768x349.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.familyorbit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/find-a-lost-phone-with-tracking-url-809x368.jpg 809w, https:\/\/www.familyorbit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/find-a-lost-phone-with-tracking-url.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3M7e0DB\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Scannero.io<\/a> also allows you to share a location from iPhone to Android.

The platform has extensive data collected from a range of sources and offers discrete tracking. Scannero.io uses public geolocation databases to show you the location of a phone even if you don&#8217;t have direct access to the device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Scannero.io stands out as a fast, easy, and reliable tool to find someone&#8217;s location using only their phone number. Whether you&#8217;re looking to track a single person or need to verify someone&#8217;s whereabouts discreetly, Scannero.io simplifies the process without requiring access to the phone. It\u2019s the ideal choice for quick, anonymous location searches.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, if you require more advanced family tracking features, such as real-time location sharing or monitoring multiple people at once, you may want to explore alternative solutions like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.familyorbit.com\/\">Family Orbit<\/a>, which is designed for more comprehensive family location management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Method 2: Use Google Maps<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another option that you have if you want to share locations from an iPhone to an Android phone is to use <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Google Maps<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. This is usually the suggested method for sharing locations between two Android phones too. Sharing locations using Google Maps is fairly easy and will give you a good idea of where the user of the phone you are tracking is and has been. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.familyorbit.com\/blog\/cell-phone-tracking-on-google-maps\/\" data-abc=\"true\">Google Maps has a &#8220;Share your location&#8221; feature<\/a> and also allows you to send your exact location in a text message, including between iPhones and Android phones.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Android phones generally come with Google Maps preloaded. With an iPhone, you will first need to download the app if you don&#8217;t already have it. The next step is to enable location services on the phone that you want to track. If you click on the blue arrow, it will show the current location. Clicking on this gives the option of sharing the location, either until a certain point in time or until it is turned off. You can choose &#8220;Select People&#8221; for sharing locations through a Google account or click &#8220;Message&#8221; to send a link by text.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.familyorbit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/enable-location-sharing-in-iphone-809x1751-1-473x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1857\" width=\"272\" height=\"589\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.familyorbit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/enable-location-sharing-in-iphone-809x1751-1-473x1024.png 473w, https:\/\/www.familyorbit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/enable-location-sharing-in-iphone-809x1751-1-139x300.png 139w, https:\/\/www.familyorbit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/enable-location-sharing-in-iphone-809x1751-1-768x1662.png 768w, https:\/\/www.familyorbit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/enable-location-sharing-in-iphone-809x1751-1-710x1536.png 710w, https:\/\/www.familyorbit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/enable-location-sharing-in-iphone-809x1751-1.png 809w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 272px) 100vw, 272px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One downside of using Google Maps is that your child may turn off location sharing easily. It&#8217;s also necessary to have a Google account if you want to share the location without sending a link in a text message. You also don&#8217;t get other features as you do when you use an app like <a data-abc=\"true\" href=\"https:\/\/play.google.com\/store\/apps\/details?id=com.parentportal.logviewer&amp;hl=en_US&amp;gl=US\">Family Orbit<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Method 3: Use Instant Messengers like WhatsApp<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Do you know WhatsApp offers a convenient way to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.familyorbit.com\/blog\/how-to-track-location-from-whatsapp\/\">share your live location<\/a> from an iPhone to an Android phone?
