I‘ve accidentally left my AirPods Pro in a safe in a hotel, and forgot about them. Over the next days I tried to get them back, but reception claimed that nobody has them.

Now the Find My app reports them in a small town near where I „lost“ them, ca 600km from my home, and clearly someone is using and charging them (with Android? Because otherwise the „Lost“ functionality would be nagging them constantly).

I won’t drive there (what would I even do if I found the person?), but this is quite maddening. I‘d rather not know where they are.



Similar thing happened to me. I gave them an address and asked them to cross reference with their employees addresses.

I got the stay for free after that, they reversed the charges and apologized.


Maybe one day your paths will cross and you can exact your revenge.
