Here’s my take on this.

When you need an immediate location, the method really depends on what’s already been set up. The absolute fastest way is typically through the phone’s native services, like Apple’s ‘Find My’ or Google’s ‘Find My Device,’ especially if you’re part of a family sharing plan where location is already enabled. This can give you a real-time position in seconds.

If that’s not an option, monitoring apps are the next logical step. While they can provide very detailed location history and other data, they usually require a one-time setup on the target phone. So, there’s a trade-off: native apps are instant if pre-configured, while third-party tools are more powerful but require that initial access for installation.
