Adding Medical and Emergency Contact Information

You can add and edit emergency information in the Contacts application. You can enter

medical details, such as allergies and medications that you are using, plus information

about relatives and friends who can be contacted in case of emergency. After setup,

your emergency information can be accessed from the security lockscreen. This means

that even if the screen is locked, for example, by a PIN, pattern, or password, emergency

personnel can still retrieve your ICE information.
