Can you put the "ICE" ( In Case of Emergency), acronym on the iphone 5?
Are you trying to talk to Apple? This is a user to user forum, apple doesn't listen fo suggestions here. Try this...

for what purpose? It already has an emergency call button, but I think you are referring to specific contacts maybe?
Put whatever information you want in a note in the Notes app. Take a screen shot by tapping the Home and power buttons at the same time. Go to Settings>Brightness&Wallpaper. Select your screenshot as your lockscreen wallpaper.
Thanks for the replies. Maybe I should claifiy. I am refering to the national campaign that enables emergency medical personal, police, etc to be able to contact your family or whoever, in case of an emergency. When your phone is locked, someone is able to press the "ICE", In Case of Emergency, button which gives one or more of your contacts name and number, that you pre-determine, to be contacted in case of an emergency. I work in an Hospital's ER and it is very helpful when people are brought in unconscious without id. It was simple to find on my old phone but apparently the I-phone does not have it or I just can't find it.
that is not an iPhone feature.

No, the iPhone does not have such a feature. The workaround I noted above should provide the same functions as any more complicated built in feature.
you can now set up an Emergency Contact in 'Medical ID' in the Healh app. When someone goes to the lock screen and switched to the Emergency call, they can click on the link Medical ID and then contact your emergency person. It also lists your age, allergies, and illnesses if you need it to.
