How to switch Find My Friends from iPhone to Watch

When my friends use Find My Friend to find me, it always shows me home since I leave my iPhone home. How do I change it so my location is determined by my Apple Watch rather than my iPhone?

Apple Watch Series 6

See the 'Change your sharing device' section in:

Find friends and share your location with Find My - Apple Support

"To change the device that you're sharing your location from, open Find My on that device. Select the Me tab, then choose Use this [device] as My Location." So as I see it, open 'Find My' with your watch.


(iPad vs iPhone have a similar setting)
