Create a Medical ID

In Health, you can create a Medical ID, which contains your critical contact and medical information, such as medications and allergies. Emergency responders (and anyone else with physical access to your iPhone) can view your Medical ID from the Lock screen without entering a passcode.

Set up your Medical ID. Tap Medical ID, then tap Create Medical ID.


Review or change your Medical ID. Tap Medical ID. To make changes, tap Edit.

3D Touch. To quickly view your Medical ID from the Home screen, press Health, then tap Medical ID. See 3D Touch.


View your Medical ID from the Lock screen. Wake iPhone and press the Home button without using Touch ID. On the passcode screen, tap Emergency, then tap Medical ID.

Prevent viewing from the Lock screen. Tap Medical ID, tap Edit, then turn off Show When Locked.
