> If you’re curious to find who’s the owner of the AirTag that you have in hand, you can use your iPhone to view this information. Don’t have an iPhone? You can still use your NFC-enabled smartphone to see contact details.

> You’ll only be able to view all this information if the owner turns on Lost Mode for the AirTag. Also, you can only see the contact information that they chose to share with you while putting it in Lost Mode.
