Thinking of places I tend to find mine…
Dropped down the side of the car seat?
In a jacket pocket that you’ve not worn for a while?
Bottom of a (laptop) bag?
In the garage next to the bike gloves?
Somewhere in the kitchen, likely near the dishwasher?
My kids would just take a cursory glance in each room, then whine when they don’t get the reward.
I think I had location history turned off, cannot find any location info related to it. I last had it before Christmas, the last sync is 16th Dec. Still think it’s in the house somewhere.
