Find My not updating location for daughter's iPhone and AirPods

When I access the Find My app, it is not updating the location of my daughter’s phone or AirPods. The location is only updated with her iCloud account. I have checked all of the settings in Find My and on her phone, but the location still won’t update and it’s been over 3 weeks since her phone and AirPods updated correctly.

Device in Find My-app not updating location Hi I have the new AirPods Pro (2nd gen), and I'm trying to find them using Find My. However, in the app they were "Last seen" almost three weeks ago, even though the AirPods and my phone have been with my in my pockets these last weeks. Why has the location of my AirPods not been updated for all this time? I have granted all permissions to the app, and connected the AirPods to my phone daily. It seems to me that if the device doesn't update its location regularly, the whole point of the app is... moot? Thank you for any help.

How to prevent a <device>-Find My? My wife and I have been using the same Apple ID for years. We finally gave in and moved her iPhone to her own Apple ID. Everything transferred pretty easily - I didn’t even have to manually move her watch. It just showed up as one of her devices after she signed into her new Apple ID. But her AirPod Pros are giving me a headache. They keep showing up in two places in “Find My”: under her name (since we have Family Sharing and share location) as “Yiqing’s AirPod Pro” and under my Devices as “Yiqing’s AirPod Pro - Find My”. I tried removing the entry under my Devices, but it keeps showing up! How can I permanently keep it out of my devices list? I should only be seeing it under my wife’s list of items. If I’m allowed I will attach a screen shot to show what I’m talking about.
