what if I reported the phone lost and it does not show with my devices and I found the phone

I put my iphone 11 pro max as lost and erased my info and now I found the phone. How can I get it back under my devices and to use the phone?

Simply log in with your Apple ID, that's it.


If you are the owner or the owner has shared all information with you then to open Activation Lock:- If it is Activation locked, read here --> Turn off Activation Lock - Apple Support Activation Lock for iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support

If you are not the owner and do not have the Apple ID and Password then there is no way that you can get into this iPhone unless the original owner shares the Apple ID and password with you. If you are lucky you can get into this iPhone if they (owner) accidentally remove the device from their Apple ID.
