Lost Phone Help
I just came out of my PSYCH 2C03 class in TSH B128 at 3:15 pm

I was texting...the prof said class was over... I get up and pack and just as I'm walking out of the lecture hall I realize my phone isnt in my hands anymore.

I checked everywhere in the classroom and everything but I couldn't find it !!! And I tried calling it but it goes straight to voicemail

someone must have put it in their bag by mistake while we were packing in a hurry to get out

If anyone has it its an iphone in a red case - please msg me or call one of my contacts ...that phone has my life on it !! all my most personal things are on that phone i cant function without it :(

I find it very unlikely that somebody would put it in their bag by mistake, theft is more likely.. iPhone theft is especially common.

....although I found an expensive looking watch one time and took it so I could hand it into security because I know somebody else would have probably stolen it; the guy managed to come back 5 minutes later though.

Either way, file a lost report.

Best of luck...

Theres also a feature native to the iPhone (i think) that can be activated by Apple... or your provider(?) to track the phone, some chick had her car stolen recently and the police tracked her phone to find where the thief went.

I have found valuable things before that people left behind and if i recognize who was sitting there, i give it to them next time the class rolls around or bring it to the security office. give it a couple days or maybe ask the prof

Did you set up an iCloud account on your phone? If you did, they you likely enabled the feature 'Find iPhone'.

DO THIS --> go to iCloud.com and log in, then click on the app FInd iPhone. It will pinpoint where your iPhone is on a map. You can also send a message to your iPhone and make it play a sound so its easy to find.

Use Avenue To Learn to send a mass email out to your classmates and ask them is they've seen it. If someone in your class has it, you'll probably reach them that way.
