Why?

Would you really prefer to be tracked by your friend every hour of every day instead of only when you are walking their dog?

I do not believe that.

Well no, that's the advantage of my own device controlling when my location is shared -- I'd turn off the FindMyFriends tracking except for when I want to be tracked (like if I'm going out to meet friends and want them to be able to find me)
