Hello. I just got a google pixel with grapheneos, and would like a way to use Apple’s find-my or something similar with family members who still use Apple. I would like something open source that can either proxy my location to Find My or serve as an alternative. I know these apps and services are inherently not private but I do need it so please don’t be the guy to say “just don’t use it,” I would if it were an option. Thanks.

    I dont know find my on Apple. So not sure if This is what you look for, but I use find My device from fdroid store https://gitlab.com/Nulide/findmydevice You can whitelist phonenumbers from people you trust and if from their number a codeword is send to your phone via SMS, it autonatically sends an SMS with its location back. but i dont know it This is what you are Looking for and if its compatible with Apple…

      Yeah I saw this on fdroid and got it set up. Sending a text to request location feels a little clunky to me but it looks like a solid option.
