What to know before you start
A parent’s position updates only while the trip screen stays open. Arrival estimates are approximate straight-line estimates, not traffic-aware navigation.
Check device support →Will the parent’s trip keep updating in the background?
No. Keep the trip screen open for updates. A previous position should not be interpreted as live background tracking.
Works better together.
