I’m not sure you can op. 2 iPhones can find each other by using find my phone which is an iPhone app, but if you have android then you’d need to have a diff app installed and switched on to track his phone

You would need another apple product, Mac / iPhone / iPad , but you would also need him to accept you tracking him or it won’t work.

Life 360 works with iPhone and Android

Is there not a website, for find my insert device? But you would need his log in info.

sorry didn’t read the second post properly, I thought you meant it was lost.

You can do the "Find My" thing from a web browser (so Chrome on your Android), but you would need to set up an iCloud account and to be friends with each other.

We also share our location with each other on Google Maps, even though we're half Android/half iPhone, but again that requires mutual consent and adding in advance (and making sure Google Maps is allowed location permission all the time)

It's a no then. No probs thanks everyone.

You can get your Find My through iCloud.com

www.icloud.com/find/

You have to sign on to an Apple ID where you can see your son's device (I can see all my family's devices from my Apple Id) If your son is not part of a family, do you know his Apple ID and password?
