Time to get a Faraday bag if you don't already have one.
- Great, now when I lose my phone, it's lost for good!
  
  If you've lost the bag it goes in, too, you probably have bigger issues.
  
  If it's not a Faraday bag then you'll find it when you find your phone.
  
  how often do you actually lose your phone though? maybe you should work on not doing that...
