Hello Friends!
Welcome back to AppleFrendly.
This is video #31 and today I'm going to show how to add emergency contact to medical ID on your iPhone.
And to show it on the lock screen.
I personally believe, every iPhone owner should know about this setting.
And hence, I decided to make a video on this.
So, these are the topics we are going to discuss today.
And, video timing of each video topic is given in the description below
so that you can skip to that particular topic directly.
And , with that being said, let's begin!
Firstly, launch 'Health' app on your iPhone.
Now tap 'Medical ID' at bottom right hand corner.
Now tap 'Create Medical ID'
Now, we'll start filling up our medical ID information.
The first setting is 'Show When Locked'
This toggle in ON by default.
If it is OFF, your medical ID will not be visible on the lock screen.
You must keep this toggle ON because this will help the first responder to contact your family
without unlocking your iPhone in case for emergency.
So, I'll just keep it ON and we'll start feeling up the rest of the information.
So in the first section, we can change our name.
So just tap it, and you can change your name which will be displayed on your lock screen.
Then you can tap your image which will be shown on the lock screen.
You have two options. You can take a photo or choose from your photo library.
Then you can add your Date of Birth.
Just tap it and select your Date of Birth.
And the next section that we have is our medical information.
Here you can add your medical conditions, medical notes, allergies & reactions and medications.
So, let me fill this fields for a demo purpose.
And, in the next section, you can add Blood type, your Organ Donor status, your Weight and your Height.
So, let me fill this for a demo purpose.
That's it.
Now, the next section and the very important section is 'Add Emergency Contact'
And there is some additional information which says that these contacts will receive SMS
when you call emergency services using Emergency SOS feature of the iPhone.
And if you want to know how it works, I'll put the link in the description below.
I've made a video on that as well.
And for now, let us add emergency contacts to this medical ID to display on the lock screen.
So, let me just tap it.
And it will give me a list of contacts.
And for a demo purpose, I've made these contacts.
You have to select your emergency contacts from this list like your Mother, your Sister,
your Brother, your Father, your Friend.
It can be anyone.
So, let me select this A3 for a demo purpose.
Now, it asks to select your relationship with this contact.
This will also be shown on the lock screen.
This will help the first responder to decide whom to call first based on the relationship status.
So, for the demo purpose, I'll just select 'Other'
Now, let me add one more emergency contact similarly.
That's it.
We've done adding our emergency contacts.
And, we've also done filling up all the required information.
So, let me just go and tap this 'Done' at top right hand corner.
Now, as you can see, this is the complete information that we have filled in for the medical ID.
Now, Let us check our medical ID on the lock screen.
So, let me just go to home.
Let me lock my screen.
And, let me tap the Home Button.
Now tap it, one more time.
Now, as you can see, there is an 'Emergency' option at bottom left hand corner.
Just tap it.
And, there is a 'Medical ID' option at the same location.
So just tap it.
And, as you can see, this is the medical ID available on the lock screen
which can be accessed without unlocking an iPhone.
And now, when you tap your emergency contact,
as you can see, it is calling that emergency number.
Let me just cancel it.
And that's it.
Now, let me just go and tap 'Done' at top right hand corner.
So, that's how easy it is to show your contact information or emergency contacts on your lock screen.
Now, let us look at the another situation where you don't want to delete your medical ID
but you want to hide it for a particular time or temporarily.
So firstly, launch 'Health' app on your iPhone.
Then tap 'Medical ID' at bottom right hand corner.
The scroll down all the way to the bottom of the screen.
And tap this 'Edit' button here.
And now, at the top section, you'll find this toggle 'Show When Locked'
Just put this toggle OFF
and tap this 'Done' at top right hand corner.
Now open multitasking section by pressing Home Button two times.
And now, close this 'Health' app from multitasking section by swiping up.
That's it.
Let me lock my iPhone.
Let me press the Home Button.
And now, let me press it again.
And now, let me tap 'Emergency'
And as you can see, the space is blank.
There no medical ID visible.
This setting can be helpful in situations where you feel that unwanted people can access
your sensitive medical information.
You can put it temporarily OFF and you can again put it ON, when you feel so.
Now, let's move ahead and see how to delete your medical ID permanently.
So, launch 'Health' app on your iPhone.
Then tap 'Medical ID' at bottom right hand corner.
Then scroll down all the way to the bottom.
The tap this 'Edit' button.
Now again, scroll down all the way to the bottom.
And as you can see, this is the 'Delete Medical ID' button.
Just tap it.
And again, tap this 'Delete Medical ID'
That's it.
You've successfully deleted your medical ID.
And, we're on the same screen where we had started.
So, that's how easy it is to delete your medical ID.
But I'd not recommend this.
I'd strongly recommend to make your medical ID and add your emergency contacts to the lock screen
because this is very very important in case of emergency.
And this brings me to the end of the video.
