The thing about the location sharing. My partner and I were just talking about this the other day. I feel like I always see extreme views about that being an invasion of privacy but for my partner and I, we just have anxiety and sometimes instead of sending a text it's better to just look at the map and be like, "Oh okay they're not in the hospital for a terrible freak accident they're just working late or stopped at the store."
