Turning Off Location Sharing Card | Stop Location Tracking On iPhone & Android | Find My Snapchat & Life360 Guide | Printable PDF | Digital Download
Turn It Off — And Make Sure It's Actually Off
Location sharing creeps in: family-finder apps, social check-ins, ride-share logs, fitness apps. Some you forgot you enabled. Some someone else enabled for you.
The Turning Off Location Sharing Card is a fast sweep across every place location sharing usually lives, so when you turn it off, it's genuinely off. It covers Apple Find My, Google and Android, the social and messaging apps people forget, and the leftovers that quietly keep sharing.
Perfect for anyone who wants to know exactly who can see where they are — and shut all of it down in about five minutes.
What's Included
✔ Apple Find My
- Open Find My ▸ People tab
- Tap each person and choose Stop Sharing My Location
- Confirm none remain, and check that no family-sharing setup overrides this
✔ Google / Android
- Open Google Maps ▸ Menu (your photo) ▸ Location Sharing
- Stop sharing with each person listed
- Check Family Link separately if it's enabled for you
✔ Social & Messaging
- Snapchat: turn on Ghost Mode in the Map

✔ Don't Forget

- Sign out of your accounts on devices you no longer use
- Change passwords if you suspect someone else enabled sharing without your consent
✔ Bonus Pro Tip
Understand that turning off location sharing doesn't always notify the other person — but they may notice it stopped. If safety is a concern, the card explains why it's worth planning that step, and that a digital safety advocate can help.
