Apple’s Health app with Medical ID

Medical ID, located within the Health App on your iPhone, allows first responders to access critical information without unlocking an iPhone. They will also see who to contact in case of an emergency. In addition, If Medical ID is set up and you fall while wearing an Apple Watch, your emergency contact will receive a text alert.
