Android users running 7.0 or higher can program emergency information and contact details through the emergency call screen when the device is locked.
On the iPhone go to your Health App, which looks like this:
Launch the Health app on your iPhone.Tap the Medical ID tab.Tap Edit in the upper right corner.Tap Edit Medical ID.Under Emergency Contacts tap Add emergency contact.Select a contact from your list.Select a relationship.
You can add as much information as you like on this app in the appropriate places. Think about it. If you were found unconscious and your phone is locked, could anyone contact someone who would need to know? Would medical personnel know your blood type and allergies?
To access it, when the passcode screen comes up, you will see emergency in the bottom left of that screen. Tap that and you will get a phone dial screen; on the bottom left it will say, in red, Medical ID. Tap that and you will get all the pertinent information.
