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?

Whenever I find a stray iPhone (which I’ve found a few), I just ask Siri to call mom. Let someone know I found the phone and I’m leaving it at this or that lost and found. So far I haven’t come across one that didn’t have mom saved in their contacts

Sometimes people have their Siri set up to not activate at first without a passcode. Seems to be the case with this one.
