Location sharing problem on Find My App

Today my girlfriend got an iPhone 13 and when i tried to share location with her, she can see mine, but i cant see hers. That same thing happened to my friend who got an iPhone 16 2 weeks ago. when i tried location sharing with him, he can see my location, but i cant see his. My other friends and my dad had the same problem and still do to this day. I dont know why. Can someone please help me? it seems like its the problem with new iPhones, beacuse it works very well on used phones by my friends for a long time, and i havent got this problem when i got my iPhone 14 a year ago.

iPhone 14, iOS 18

To use Find My and Location Services on an iPhone effectively, both your iPhone and the device you're trying to locate must have an active internet connection. These services rely on internet access to share your location with friends and family and to track the locations of devices, people, and items. Without internet connectivity on either end, the sharing and locating features of Find My and Location Services will not function properly.
