My father found an iPhone while out walking his dogs. it’s case and screen protector looked like it saw better days. I finally got it charged, took the screen protector off because I couldn’t take it looking that way 🤣 and it has an sos in the top right corner. It doesn’t have any lost mode information on it but I’ve seen alerts come up for medication and games.

Since my trying to figure out how to find the owner gotten me into this iPhone unavailable, is there anything else I can try to reunite the phone and owner or should I call it a day and dispose of it?

    Once I found an iPad in an airport, picked it up and called Apple to let them know I’d found it, gave them the serial number and said I’d like to return it. They said they couldn’t provide the iCloud contact, I asked them to send an email to the owner letting them know I’d like to return it, they said that wouldn’t be possible either. I would have liked to have solved it because from the case and the wallpaper it looked like it belonged to a child.

      Same here, by the wallpaper I think it’s a child or teen on the Lock Screen. If it was my stuff lost I’d like to hope (know it wouldn’t but still) a Good Samaritan would try to reunite it and me. Again I know it wouldn’t happen but eternal optimist 🤣
