I'm switching from my iPhone 14 to my iPhone 17, keeping them both signed into the same Apple ID. Will the "Find My" app for the "People" section allow me to see my friends' real-time locations on both devices (iPhone 14 and 17), or will they have to share again for my iPhone 17?
iPhone 17
You’ll see all your friends’ locations on both iPhones without them having to share again, because location sharing in Find My is tied to your Apple ID, not the device. As long as your iPhone 17 is signed in with the same Apple ID, the “People” list appears automatically on both phones.
But your own location can only be shared from one device at a time.
You can choose which iPhone broadcasts your location by going to Find My → Me → Share My Location From → [Select Device].

Did you set up the 17 after a factory reset and restore the backup made with the 14? , or just sign someone out of the 17 and sign in without a factory reset?
Do you see both phones in the devices tab?
Yes, my location is enabled. Could it be that my friend only shared his location with his iPhone 14? If he added my iCloud address to his contacts and location sharing was already enabled, could I see it on both?

I see both my devices on the screen, while I only see my friends on the old iPhone.
I transferred data from one iPhone to another

Do Find My People locations transfer to a new iPhone
