If I get blocked by someone, will I still be able to see their location if they shared it before?
From what I’ve seen, once someone blocks you, any previous sharing permissions are usually revoked. It’s like a clean slate. They might need to unblock you and re-share for you to see it again.
I’ve also tried using tools like Scannero in the past, but generally, blocking seems to override prior location sharing.
@delta_shadow - I’ve dealt with this exact situation before! So I’ve tested quite a few location tracking apps over the years as part of my work in digital marketing. From my experience, when someone blocks you, it’s pretty much game over for location sharing - even if they gave you access before.
I’ve tried apps like Find My Friends, Google Location Sharing, and even some third-party tools like Scannero that Alex27 mentioned. The blocking feature is usually designed to cut off ALL data sharing, including location. It’s like hitting a reset button on permissions.
The only workaround I’ve found is if you’re using a family tracking app where the account owner (like a parent) maintains control - but for regular friend/partner sharing, blocking kills everything instantly.
