Sounds great Denise! where did you get it? I was just thinking today (once again!) how I really, really must get myself maybe a medicalert bracelet or something - I'm just not sure about doing that as I know it will prompt a lot of questions and assumptions from people so this thing sounds like a good idea - I think! I'm not sure I could part with the crest of my football team :shock:

Yes I use that app for my lock screen too. There's plenty of advice saying everyone should have an ICE contact in their contacts, but it's not much use if you have a pass code on your phone! So this emergency ID app is perfect.

Re: Hi

Yes it's very frustrating when a phone has a passcode on so you can't get to the emergency contacts.

Re diabetic tattoos, bracelets etc - I wouldn't for a minute say don't get one, if you want one, but if you are found unconscious the emergency medical services will ALWAYS take your blood sugar, it will be among the very first things that they do. It's much more of an issue for members of the public, who are inclined to think that people having hypos are drunk.
