The labels feature a [QR code](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smartlinks) that the finder of an item only needs to scan to be presented with the owner's information to help them connect and organize a time to meet. The labels are great for a variety of items like books, sports equipment, [travel mugs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/knog-scout-travel) and more where conventional trackers might not otherwise work. The Tile Lost and Found Labels are easy to set up with the owner's information, but privacy-conscious consumers can also opt to set up a virtual phone number or email address specifically to aid recovery.
