Description
I lost my silver iPad Pro 11-inch yesterday around 3pm near the Rockford Public Library on Court Street. It's in a blue silicone case with a white Apple sticker on the back and a small dent near the bottom corner. The device holds my work notes, travel apps, and a lot of personal photos, so it really means a lot to me to get it back. I had it in a gray padded sleeve inside a crossbody bag that I left on a bench by the library's outdoor cafe. If you found it, please DM me here—I'll be forever grateful.

How to safely get your item back
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the finder before meeting
- Ask them to describe a detail not shown in your listing, such as an engraving, scratch, or contents.
- Request a clear photo of the item from an angle you did not post.
- Do not pay any release, shipping, or storage fee.
- Do not share your full address until you have verified them.
Meet in a safe, public place
- Police stations, café entrances, transport hubs, and shop foyers all work.
- Meet during daylight hours where there is CCTV and foot traffic.
- Avoid private homes, car parks at night, or isolated locations.
Bring someone with you
- Tell a friend or family member where you are meeting and when.
- Share your live location with them during the handoff.
- For high-value items, consider contacting your local police station for advice first.
Keep communication on lostandfound.io
- Use the in-app message thread so there is a record if something goes wrong.
- Do not move to WhatsApp, SMS, or email until you have exchanged a verifying detail.
- Never share bank details, government ID numbers, or copies of your ID.
