FAQs
1. I can’t invite friends?
Friends requires several things:
- Signed into iCloud
- “iCloud Drive” is enabled
- “Look Me Up” is enabled
You can sign into iCloud in the Settings app, at the top of the screen.
iCloud Drive can be enabled in Settings > Apple ID > iCloud
Look Me Up can be enabled in Settings > Apple ID > iCloud > Look Me Up
2. Why can’t I see my friends? What is CKError 3?
Unfortunately there is a bug in iOS that prevents the status of “Look Me Up” permissions from being retrieved when on a cellular network, but otherwise works as expected on WiFi networks.
