There are good people in this world. There are people who would be willing to return that Motorola DROID RAZR that they found in a taxi seat, or on the floor at the movie theater. The problem, of course, is tracking down who a device belongs to. Devices running Android 3.0 and higher can put messages on the lock screen, but for those running a device powered by Android 2.2 or higher, misHaps does the same thing and adds emergency contact numbers. Available for just 99 cents in the Google Play Store, consider the app to be a vote on the honesty of humanity.
Hopefully she had misHaps on her lost phone
There is a secondary screen available with misHaps that allows you to show emergency medical information, any pertinent medical conditions and info like allergies and blood type. Allowing paramedics or other first responders to have access to this information can often be the difference between enjoying a cold one hours later, with a slab of ribs in front of you, and being a cold slab hours later with a "Y" cut separating your ribs.
With settings that delay misHaps from opening anytime between 1 to 60 seconds, users still get a chance to unlock the phone without triggering the app. It seems that the developer thought of just about everything just in case you do have a, ahem, mishap.
