I switched to iOS, but my family still uses Android. Is there a reliable, free way to track an Android phone's location from my iPhone? I need a solution that works across different operating systems.
The most effective and free way to bridge the gap between iOS and Android is by using Google Maps. Since Apple's "Find My" app doesn't support Android devices, Google Maps serves as the perfect cross-platform intermediary. By having your family members open Google Maps on their Android phones, tapping their profile icon, and selecting "Location Sharing," they can send you a live link or share directly with your Google account. You can find more detailed setup instructions here to ensure the connection remains active indefinitely.
