How add contact info to Lock Screen on iPhone 12? (to aid recovery if phone is lost)

On my prior Android devices I could add my email contact info to the Lock Screen for someone who finds my lost phone to communicate with me. Per searches it looks like this was also possible on earlier iPhone versions. But I find no way to do this on iPhone 12, other than adding text to the image that is on the Lock Screen. I change the Lock Screen image frequently and don’t want to add text to it every time.

iPhone 12 Pro, iOS 14

Hello LBLeB,


It sounds as though you would like to provide contact information on your lock screen if your device is lost. You've come to a great place for help! Apple does provide options to have contact information display if it's lost. This information can be found in the section titled 'Mark your device as lost or turn on Lost Mode for your item' of the following article.


Use the Find My app to locate a missing device or item


Have a great day!
