Will find my friends track my girlfriends SIM card or iPhone?
My girlfriend is visiting from abroad next week and we're planning on staying at a hotel for one night while she is here to get some alone time. The only issue is that her parents are very protective and would track her via find my friends and see she is at the hotel and would likely cause issues. I have another iPhone which I'm planning to have her swap her SIM card out of her current phone and put it in my other phone. If she is logged into my iCloud account, will her parents still be able to track us even if we leave her original phone at home?
Yes they can still track her as it is not phone related but rather related to the account
Find my Friends/Find my iPhone uses the phone's GPS and Internet to track the device. The SIM card is irrelevant except for the fact that it is used for mobile data.
In other words, if she has Internet access (Wi-Fi or mobile data), she can be tracked.
Definitely not.
Her SIM in your iPhone connected to your iCloud account will not show on that app.
It does not track SIM cards. Just Apple devices linked to the owners iCloud account.
It also can't track Apple devices which are turned off; it can only show where the device was when last used.
It tracks the device, but only works when it's on and connected to a network. It will still work if she puts the iPhone on airplane mode but leaves it connected to a hot spot
- Tech geniuses. Is there a way to fake your iPhone s location? *specifically on find my friends /location services*? Wondering if anyone can help me either 1) freeze my iPhones location at a specific spot or 2) completely fake the location (without jailbreaking my phone) I'm required to share my location at all times to my parents and need a night a feeedom.
- Is there a way to trick the find my friends app on iPhone? My boyfriend and I have each other on the find my friends app, which allows us to see each other's locations. I work until midnight which is why he has access to my location but I have a surprise for him that will require me to go to the store and pick it up… I don't want him to peek at the app and have him see where I'm cause it will be obvious what I'm doing. Any way to make it look like I'm somewhere else? Maybe make it look like I'm a at my house?
- Changing from normal sim card to iPhone 4 sim card? I'm an AT&T customer with a smart phone. I'm wanting to buy an iPhone 4 but I know they take smaller sim cards than normal phones. If I buy an iPhone from an individual, can I take it to AT&T and have them give me a smaller sim card & transfer my information? Would I have to pay extra for it? Is it even possible?
- Can you switch the iPhone 4 SIM card with an iPhone 4S SIM card? My mom has an iPhone 4S for sprint and I have an iPhone 4 for AT&T. Is it possible to switch SIM cards?
