I am currently testing MDM on iOS and location sharing stopped working while having the profile on my phone. When I removed the profile, people are able to see my location again. Is this a setting in the profile configuration that I missed or didn't enable? Any help is appreciated.

Curently running iOS 15.1 on an iPhone 11 pro

    @Vincent Thanks for posting in our Q&A.

    To clarify this issue, we appreciate your help to collect some information:

    1. What method did you use to enroll the iOS device?
    2. Which profile did you remove? And please tell us where did you see the device location.

    Based on my understanding, if your iOS device is ADE enrollment, please check if we configure the setting "Block Find My iPhone" in the Device restriction profile.

    If there is anything update, feel free to let us know.
