Presumably they mean write the phone number of an emergency contact / partner etc? We do this, but also wrote a note with all the contact details of the rest of our group and then screen shot it and set it as the lock screen: 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We all subsequently received phone calls and the phone was returned the next day! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's handed to lost property most phones have no battery power (and along with car keys) look the same.When collecting items from lost property identifying features make it easier to prove it's yours.

That’s some serious volume. I thought mine was big at 85L One tip for those with a habit of losing phones. Attach a lanyard to it that can clip to your belt/bag. It’s very easy to lose a phone from your shorts pocket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supernintendo Chalmers Posted April 11, 2022 Report Share Posted April 11, 2022 I'm terrible at using the search function on this website but I remember someone creating a super useful ultimate list at one time some years ago. It became my template for ages. It'll be slightly out of date now but I've tried finding it with no luck. Can anyone else recall it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
