Stick it. Someone scans. You get a text.

Private lost and found stickers. Finders message you, and never see your number.

Your privacy

  • Your number stays hidden

    Finders never see your phone number, email or address.

  • Texts come from PHQR's number

    You and the finder text through PHQR, so you never see each other's numbers.

  • You choose what finders see

    Your first name, the item's name, and a photo and note only if you add them.
