Lost and found for your neighbourhood

Found something? Help it find its way home.

GotSpotted makes it easy to post things you find – with a photo and the exact spot – so the owner can see where they are.

GotSpotted's neighbourhood feed with found items in Stockholm

What is GotSpotted?

Every day, keys, wallets, earbuds and backpacks are left behind on park benches, on the metro and on the pavement. Most of the time, the person who finds them has no way of getting them back to their owner.

GotSpotted is a shared feed for your neighbourhood. Whoever finds something posts it in seconds, and whoever lost something can quickly check if someone has found it – and exactly where.

How it works

Three steps from found to on its way home.

  1. 01

    Spot it

    You see something someone has dropped – a set of keys, a pair of earbuds or a wallet.

  2. 02

    Snap and report

    Take a photo, give the item a title and let the app fill in the address for you.

  3. 03

    The owner sees it

    The item shows up in the neighbourhood feed with a photo, a location hint and a map.
