lost phone

Can't find device

A lost phone is a mobile phone that has been misplaced or cannot be found by its owner.

The term appears frequently in the context of recovery features: Find My iPhone helps locate a lost phone, I used the lost phone tracker to find it under the couch.

A lost phone creates particular anxiety in modern life because it contains so much personal data, contacts, and access to accounts—losing one feels like losing a piece of yourself.
