Is there a way to customize text on a lock screen ("If found: email-address") in ios16? I'm not seeing a way at present. tx

Thanks. I didn't know this! and I doubt most people will.

I found a method that may solve things: I opened a photo in Preview, added a text box with my contact information, it synced/saved back to photos, then selected that as the lock screen image. Seems to do what I want.

Thanks.

You can submit a feature request here - Product Feedback - Apple

when the phone is locked you should be able to say "Hey Siri, whose phone is this?" to find out the owner. you need to turn on find my phone for the best chance of finding your lost device as well.
