Losing your car key can quickly turn a good day into a stressful situation. Whether they slipped out of your pocket, got misplaced at work, or were left behind during errands, being locked out of your vehicle is something many drivers face. The HERQ Lost & Found app makes this process easier by letting you publish a lost or found notice instantly, alerting people nearby, and giving you a much higher chance of recovering your keys quickly.

Types of Car Keys Frequently Lost

• Traditional metal keys – simple, common, but difficult to trace once misplaced.
• Remote control keys – often dropped in parking lots, gyms, or shopping malls.
• Keyless entry fobs – small, easy to misplace, and critical for modern cars.
• Smart keys with security chips – advanced but expensive to replace, costing €200–500 on average.

With HERQ, each of these key types can be listed in detail, helping finders recognize and return the exact item they’ve come across.

How HERQ Simplifies Car Key Recovery

• Instant alerts – notify nearby HERQ users within minutes of reporting your loss.
• QR code protection – attach HERQ stickers to your keychain for fast and secure identification.
• Community-driven help – thousands of users ready to assist with returns.
• Privacy-first messaging – no need to share phone numbers or emails with strangers.
• Reward incentives – motivate quick returns through HERQ Coins or cash rewards.

Replacement vs. Recovery

If your car keys are not recovered quickly, replacement may be necessary:

• Traditional keys – €20–50 at locksmiths.
• Remote fobs – €100–250 depending on the model.
• Smart keys – €200–500+ including programming costs.

HERQ reduces these costs significantly by increasing your chances of recovery before replacement is required.

Prevention Tips

• Always keep spare keys stored securely with a trusted contact.
• Attach a HERQ QR code to your keychain.
• Check belongings before leaving cars, gyms, or restaurants.
• Consider a Bluetooth tracker for high-value smart keys.
