What can someone who finds a lost cell phone do?

It can happen to everyone, at any time and place, to lose the phone, forget it or lose it because it has fallen out of your pocket.
We have talked other times about how to prepare for that moment and now we see it from a different perspective, on the side of those who find it: What can those who find a lost smartphone do and how they can facilitate the owner to recover it "> with each smartphone you can use the same charger.
Right with an iPhone there could be problems, but in the end practically anyone has a charger for the Apple smartphone and if it were not you can ask a friend or family member.
Keeping him in charge, you will only have to wait for the owner or a family member to phone in order to agree and recover the lost mobile phone.
It is obvious that if the phone turns off this cannot be traced by the owner.
This is what an honest person would do, even if someone who finds a phone could live far away from where it was lost and the owner may notice that they no longer have the phone after too long.
If you wanted to speed up the operations it would be necessary that the owner had prepared for this event and configured the option that shows a message on the lock screen .
In the message you can write the phone number of a close relative, parent or spouse so that whoever finds it can immediately call him and communicate that he has found his cell phone.
The message scrolls on the screen all the time and can be of the type: " Claudio Pomhey 3283333XXX " or " if you find this cell phone, call the number 328223XXX ".
On every Android smartphone you can configure this message in the Security Settings, under the " MSG lock screen " option.
On the iPhone you can instead configure the emergency contact in the Health app, very useful in case of accident and loss of the phone.
If your mobile phone was unlocked and you could use it to make phone calls, without going to read private messages or looking at photos, it is better to open the phone book and search the call log for the number to which the last calls were made, in order to track down a friend or relative of the owner.
Favorite contacts are often also set in the address book, which are certainly people in close contact.
Why isn't it a good idea to keep your phone back?
Meanwhile, it would be dishonest and given how easy it is to find the owner, it would be like stealing it.
In addition, that smartphone may stop working if the owner goes to request the lock via IMEI or if he has activated the internal lock.
As already explained, you can find the IMEI code to block the mobile phone if it is stolen in a very simple way and this makes it impossible to use it even with a new SIM card and even formatting it.
Even more easily, however, you can make your stolen phone unusable remotely
