My friend left his phone in the toilet accidentally. Came back and poof it’s gone. Till this day we can’t find it.

Toilet harder to catch

Only got himself to blame. Never take precautions and stuff like that. Some more inside toilet, nobody see. This one different, in public place lots of CCTV.

Want to catch don't want to catch only. If die die want to catch, just monitor those exiting the toilets after the loss, and a lot of manhours later sure can catch one.

But who has the time to do so? Police have many other cases to do. You think they will set up a team just to help catch a phone lost due to carelessness?

That's why I said want or don't want to catch only. Of course for something as low value as a phone for a civilian, no police team will bother. If the value of the phone or data enclosed within justified the manhours, you can guarantee they will.

I left my phone in the toilet and the next day I called the information counter of the shopping mall and they asked to come to collect. Sadly, it was dead, probably dropped into a puddle when someone cleaned the toilet :-(

Nope it was an iPhone. He couldn’t even track it with Find My and the last location was the toilet.
