More than one person on one device

my Grandparents share one phone and I want to set up multiple medical ID profiles for them to make sure they’re safe. We have one currently set up is there any way to add an additional person

iPhone X, iOS 15

Hi Phwhai,


No this isn’t possible.


Everyone should have their own device and own Apple ID. Both of their health information would be syncing to one Health app and from there it would be hard to distinguish who is who.


I don’t recommend it as I don’t know the security and encryption that goes behind different apps… but if buying another device isn’t possible, you could look for alternate apps on the App Store that allow you to setup multiple profiles, save health information, and share it with family members.
