Apple Find My is goated
It is Apple exclusive and can't be turned off
It’s shit for automating things and especially useless outside the Apple ecosystem, but it does offer the option to turn off sharing.
Apple ID -> Find My -> Share My Location
Since it’s closed source it’s possible they still capture the location and I would t trust it, but in practice anyone that you’ve allowed to see your location (for an hour, day, while on-route) gets a “location unknown” on their app of the toggle is off.
for two reasons, I can't use this.
findmydevice on fdroid. you can use encrypted pings to your server at set intervals to track each device
open source?
