Sharing your location with your family and friends can be useful for safety reasons. But sometimes, you may want to secretly stop sharing your location without them knowing. Fortunately, there are tons of hacks you can use to freeze, pause, or stop sharing your location without sending any notifications about your actions.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Can you stop sharing location without them knowing<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, you can turn off location without notifying the iPhone using a variety of hacks such as turning on Airplane Mode, or generally disabling location services. However, although they won\u2019t be notified right away when you pause sharing your location, they will be notified when you resume sharing.

So, what if you truly wish to hide your location without stopping sharing? This means spoofing your location, so you appear to still be in the location they knew you were in before. To do this, you only need a reliable location changer app from your Apple App Store. Once you\u2019ve downloaded and activated the app, you can pick the location you\u2019d like to appear as opposed to where you truly are.
