Is there a way to Find My Friends" from the desktop, rather than iPhone? I would like to access "Find My Friends" from the desktop. Also, is there an API available? I'd like to write code to monitor a person's location over time. Well said. You can log into Find My iPhone on a Mac, and see the location of all your 3G- or WiFi-connected devices, including the Mac. So it's quite feasible to make the Mac part of the Find My Friends universe, if Apple chose to. 6 Answers 6. If you want a bigger screen view, you might want to consider using Find My Friends on iCloud.com (https://www.icloud.com/#fmf) On macOS, both the existing native options were not resizable (i.e neither the Notification centre widget nor the 'Details' from Messages app) so I ended up using the Find My Friends on iCloud webapp. For bonus points, use the above URL to create a Fluid App (https://fluidapp.com/), the resulting app feels native. The first time you launch it, you will need to sign in to your icloud account, but from then on, launching the app feels pretty native. The free version of https://fluidapp.com/ should suffice to do all of the above, but the paid version (USD 5 at the time of this writing) allows you to add the fluid app to the mac menu bar (besides supporting userscripts and allowing full screen mode), which I use quite often. (Am not associated with fluidapp in any way). I am unaware of the implication of an 'always-on' find my friends on the battery life of the device being tracked, but something to bear in mind. The only caveat is that fluid apps don't seem have a location API, so your location will not be visible on the map (this wasn't an issue for me since without copious amount of spirits, I usually know where I am
) If you must have your location visible, then https://github.com/dmarmor/epichrome was quite straightforward. This is a helper app which creates SSBs based on Chrome (whereas the above, fluidapp, is based on Safari). I created the following SSB using epichrome: Comparison of EpiChrome vs. FluidApp. For the test url (https://www.icloud.com/#fmf), the time-to-usefulness (i.e. the location of a single friend appearing on the map), was identical across 5 tests using wall-clock time (13 seconds for each). Epichrome's SSB has support for location API (i.e. your location will be visible) FluidApp's app (paid version) has a very nice 'Pin to Statusbar' feature, which is a deal clincher for me (especially since I did not care about #2 and with this feature #1 becomes moot since the application is 'always-on'). I also find this useful since then 'Find my Friends' does not clutter the task switcher. find my friends windows 10
