Hoping one of you can answer this one. 

My kid seems to get weather alerts that my husband and I don’t get. We all live 
in the same house. I joke that my phone secretly wants me dead. 

Can anybody tell me why this might be happening? My kid got an alert this 
morning that neither my husband and I got, a weather one and we are obviously 
all effected by the same weather systems.

Hi.  Are all of you using the same weather app?  Different apps have different 
ways they can push out alerts.  some let you customize when an alert is pushed 
out. With some you can have it notify you if a watch/warning is in your general 
area as well as very close weather like pop up storms.  Your daughter may have 
her phone set to alert if something is definitely happening in your immediate 
area. If all else fails, put all three phones die by side and compare settings.

So, do not reply to this post, on-list; as this thread stops now.

Thank you,

Even in 2005 wich was another really bad year. We didn't even make it to this 
many hurricanes so soon. The reality is we are killing the planet and we are 
seeing how things will play out if we continue. I really need to start looking 
into the best weather apps, honestly thought we was going to get Salley here, 
and that would have been a mess after having Laura tare up the southwest part

I will avoid the politics even though I have 1000% opposite view of Rena, but 
the fires in the west happen pretty much yearly; but never, ever, ever to this 
level.
I’ve lived on the west coast for 66 years.
And, this is the earliest we have ever gotten to this many hurricanes.

So, if you are a thinking person, there is cause for concern.

The hurricanes in the south east occur every year, during the hurricane season 
June/November, so nothing new.
The fires in the west are not new either, as they happen frequently due to 
several factors.
Trump is something good that happens to this country since a long-long time ago.
To sum up, there’s nothing to worry about, at least not about these 3 things.

Possibly a little too late for the Oregon Washington and California fires, but

It is from the library of Congress website.

I’ll let this pass other than to say this is getting pretty far off topic, and 
once politics comes up, it can only get worse. Plus, once we start talking 
about science and facts, supporters of one particular candidate can get pretty 
thin skinned.

RE: Emergency Preparedness - National Library Service for the Blind and Print Disabled (NLS) | Library of Congress

2020-09-18 Thread chaltain
I’ll let this pass other than to say this is getting pretty far off topic, and 
once politics comes up, it can only get worse. Plus, once we start talking 
about science and facts, supporters of one particular candidate can get pretty 
thin skinned.

The hurricanes in the south east occur every year, during the hurricane season 
June/November, so nothing new.

The fires in the west are not new either, as they happen frequently due to 
several factors.

Trump is something good that happens to this country since a long-long time ago.

To sum up, there’s nothing to worry about, at least not about these 3 things.

Possibly a little too late for the Oregon Washington and California fires, but 
here's a resource I was just alerted to that might be helpful for people 
planning in all kinds of emergencies in the future.

It is from the library of Congress website.

Yeah well… the respite was short lived. Back up to 150 AQI. Not Oregon

have purchased an air purifier a few weeks ago before there was a  run on them.

Yeah well… the respite was short lived. Back up to 150 AQI. Not Oregon 
apocalypse, but not fun either. Everything’s closed up again. We were lucky to 
have purchased an air purifier a few weeks ago before there was a  run on them. 
We looked at a few Bluetooth models and naturally, they were all at least $100 
more for comparable specs. We ended up settling on a Honeywell without 
Bluetooth.

There were some recent articles on Motherboard (Vice) and the LA Times on how 
to DIY air purifiers  in case anyone’s feeling handy and can’t find any in 
stock.

In the US, we have 2 entries under government alerts.  One is Amber alert which 
you can toggle on / off.  The other is emergency alerts which is everything 
else.  Since you are getting alerts from the US, maybe these options will show 
up for you.  Hopefully you don't get weather alerts from the US too!

Hello,

My phone, being the idiot it is, likes to give me amber alerts.
From...Austin Texas, I know not why. Any way of turning these off?

If it helps, I live in Scotland.

Luckily we in the US can turn Amber alerts off.  I would certainly be of no 
help there.  If I was sighted, I would have the Amber alert on.  I agree that 
anyone who would call 911 to complain about an Amber alert is a selfish idiot.

And if you are in Canada the Setting to turn these off does not exist, our 
government feels that if they put out such an alert everybody should get it 
although I believe it won’t play if your phone is muted.

Recently an amber alert was issued in Ontario for a missing 3-year old boy and 
I think it was around 4 or 5 in the morning. About a dozen people called 9 1 1 
to complain about being woken up and who gives the government the right to do 
this and they just don’t care anyways if a child was missing. The boy was found 
quite quickly, by the way, people who react like this are such selfish idiots.

There’s a heading that says something like government notifications and under

Hello.

Good tip about turning off auto dial in Emergency SOS.  I just did that on my 8 
Plus.  Another setting I found was Call with Side Button.  It’s  off now.  
Should it be on?

I called 911 when I was setting up my iPhone 8. I put it in the case while the 
phone was on and it pressed the power and volume buttons at the same time in 
the process of doing that. You need to go into settings and emergency SOS. Turn 
off the auto dial feature so that you have to confirm if you want to call 911. 
Otherwise it will auto dial in five seconds if you ever press those two buttons 
again.

Hi Mary and all,
Finally I got my phone working.
I went to the apple store and they gave me a new phone.  They tried to restore 
my iPhone several times and it remained stuck in the same place I saw in my 
home when I tried to set it up.
The technician did not want to waste too much time.  She gave me a new phone.  
The new one works seamlessly.  The only mistake I made is to dial 911 by 
mistake.  I still do not know what I did exactly to make such a mistake, but I 
hope I won’t do it again.

As far as the transfer of my apps and keyboards, everything went well.

Cheers,

Cris

Last night I called the Apple disability support.  The technician and I spent 
over an hour trying to find a fix to no avail.
I gave her access to my laptop and also gave her access to my phone camera and 
we tried very hard to get the setup of the new iPhone going, but we failed.

Cris, I don't know if this will help, but this is what we did with our ipad 
when we didn't have anyone hear to get the ipad going. When we got our ipad 
about a year ago I tripple tapped the home button on the ipad and it began 
talking. I don't know if this will work with the phone, and if nothing else as 
worked yet, maybe you could give it a try. Another thought, you might want to 
install itunes on your computer, if you don't already have it installed, hook 
your phone up to your computer and see what you could do to get your phone 
going. You probably have a solution by now with listers that have responded to 
you, but I hope you could find a solution soon, and let us know how you like 
your new phone.

Hello Richard,

Anyone can view your medical ID info by doing the following on your phone:

1.
With the phone being locked, press the Home button.  This will prompt the user 
for a password since they do not have a Touch ID stored on the device.  

2.
On the lower left corner of the display, this will be the same display that is

How your iPhone could save your life
By Kim Komando, Special for USA TODAY Updated 10 minutes ago 

It's hard to imagine leaving the house without a cell phone. Most of us feel 
naked and alone without our phones, disconnected from the world. We feel, in a 
word, unsafe.
The truth is, your mobile phone can save your life. Driving in remote places, 
cornered by an attacker, pinned beneath machinery, we can use our phones to 
reach emergency workers in ways that no other distress signal can.
A smartphone can pinpoint exactly where we are located. We can use photos, 
video calls, and digital "pins" to illustrate the situation.
That's why it's vital for you to share the very important information contained 
in this article with your family members and friends.
Knowing how to use your phone's safety features is as essential as having a 
smoke detector in your home. These tools are powerful in an emergency, but 
they're useless if you don't know how they work.
Have Android? Click here for the app you need in an emergency.
For iOS gadgets, Apple has provided built-in emergency SOS and medical data 
tools that you can utilize to assist you when the unthinkable happens. Here are 
iPhone settings that may just save your life.
How emergency SOS works
Emergency SOS is a feature that will call emergency services and notify your 
personal emergency contacts when you need it.
In the U.S., your iPhone will dial 911 and connect you to an operator. After 
that call concludes, it will then send a text message to your emergency 
contacts (unless you choose to cancel). It will send your current location to 
your contacts and also update them when your location changes.
Even if you keep your iPhone's location services turned off, the phone will 
automatically turn it back on during Emergency SOS.
How to activate Emergency SOS
Previous versions of the iPhone (7 and earlier) let you start SOS mode by 
pressing the side button five times and dragging the bright red slider over to 
start the call to 911.
While this action still works, there are additional emergency options for the 
iPhone 8, 8 Plus, and X.
For Apple's latest phones, press and hold the side button along with one of the 
volume buttons until you see the Emergency SOS slider appear on the screen.
Now, you have two options. You can manually move the slider to start the call, 
or you can continue to hold down the buttons. If you choose this second route, 
the iPhone will start a countdown and then automatically call emergency 
services.
This is handy if you're in a situation where you can't afford to look down at 
your phone or if you need to dial 911 discreetly.

Hello Richard,

Anyone can view your medical ID info by doing the following on your phone:

1.
With the phone being locked, press the Home button.  This will prompt the user 
for a password since they do not have a Touch ID stored on the device.  

2.
On the lower left corner of the display, this will be the same display that is 
showing the keypad to enter your PIN, select the Emergency button.  Doing this 
will cause the DialPad to be displayed.  

3.
On the lower left corner of this display, select the Medical ID button.  Doing

How your iPhone could save your life
By Kim Komando, Special for USA TODAY Updated 10 minutes ago 

It's hard to imagine leaving the house without a cell phone. Most of us feel 
naked and alone without our phones, disconnected from the world. We feel, in a 
word, unsafe.
The truth is, your mobile phone can save your life. Driving in remote places, 
cornered by an attacker, pinned beneath machinery, we can use our phones to 
reach emergency workers in ways that no other distress signal can.
A smartphone can pinpoint exactly where we are located. We can use photos, 
video calls, and digital "pins" to illustrate the situation.
That's why it's vital for you to share the very important information contained 
in this article with your family members and friends.
Knowing how to use your phone's safety features is as essential as having a 
smoke detector in your home. These tools are powerful in an emergency, but 
they're useless if you don't know how they work.
Have Android? Click here for the app you need in an emergency.
For iOS gadgets, Apple has provided built-in emergency SOS and medical data 
tools that you can utilize to assist you when the unthinkable happens. Here are 
iPhone settings that may just save your life.
How emergency SOS works
Emergency SOS is a feature that will call emergency services and notify your 
personal emergency contacts when you need it.
In the U.S., your iPhone will dial 911 and connect you to an operator. After 
that call concludes, it will then send a text message to your emergency 
contacts (unless you choose to cancel). It will send your current location to 
your contacts and also update them when your location changes.
Even if you keep your iPhone's location services turned off, the phone will 
automatically turn it back on during Emergency SOS.
How to activate Emergency SOS
Previous versions of the iPhone (7 and earlier) let you start SOS mode by 
pressing the side button five times and dragging the bright red slider over to 
start the call to 911.
While this action still works, there are additional emergency options for the 
iPhone 8, 8 Plus, and X.
For Apple's latest phones, press and hold the side button along with one of the 
volume buttons until you see the Emergency SOS slider appear on the screen.
Now, you have two options. You can manually move the slider to start the call, 
or you can continue to hold down the buttons. If you choose this second route, 
the iPhone will start a countdown and then automatically call emergency 
services.
This is handy if you're in a situation where you can't afford to look down at 
your phone or if you need to dial 911 discreetly.

Hi Sieghard,

With auto-calling off, when I press the power button five times, a screen opens 
containing Emergency SOS, Medical ID, and Cancel. I assume that if I chose 
Emergency SOS, I could make a 911 call. If I choose cancel, Touch ID is turned 
off.

RE: Emergency S.O.S

2017-09-20 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
If somebody seriously wants to harm you and they were aware you are calling 9 1 
1 they could simply take the phone away from you and smash it which very 
effectively would also cancel the call. If the call had already connected or 
was just doing so this may prevent your location getting sent and of course if 
you are not at home and 9 1 1 can’t get your location from the phone or you 
can’t provide it you are out of luck.
The good thing is that anybody can click the power button 5 times even if the 
phone is in your pocket or a bag, but as soon as you do it this very awesome 
Star Trek sounding siren goes off, but it might take somebody a few seconds to 
figure out what it is and 8 seconds or whatever it is do go by fairly quickly 
as I found out (maybe the rodeo rider who is sitting on a bucking bull may not 
think so, but it’s not so long).

had Voiceover on and showed her the new Emergency S.O.S setting. By default 
this is turned off, if you turn it on then pressing the power/sleep button 5 
times quickly will start a siren and count-down, I think it’s 8 or 10 seconds, 
and then the phone calls 9 1 1. I think I tried this once on my Apple Watch 
where you have the same functionality if you press the side button 5 times

explained that we just updated to iOS 11 and accidently triggered the call with 
this new feature and he did not sound at all surprised. He did ask if I would 
mind staying on while he gets the police on the line so I could confirm to them 
that everything was OK, I did so, provided my name and confirmed that I was not

Hi,

In Emergency SOS settings, you can turn off automatic calling. This has two 
advantages. You can cancel a call, and once you do, touch ID is turned off. So 
this is a quick way to turn it off if you think you might be in a situation 
where someone might try to force you to unlock your phone with touch ID.

Re: Emergency S.O.S

2017-09-20 Thread Woody Anna Dresner
Hi,

In Emergency SOS settings, you can turn off automatic calling. This has two 
advantages. You can cancel a call, and once you do, touch ID is turned off. So 
this is a quick way to turn it off if you think you might be in a situation 
where someone might try to force you to unlock your phone with touch ID.

Best,
Anna

Subject: Emergency S.O.S

Hello,

 

So I just updated my wife’s iPhone 6S to iOS 11. She is sighted, but I still 
had Voiceover on and showed her the new Emergency S.O.S setting. By default 
this is turned off, if you turn it on then pressing the power/sleep button 5 
times quickly will start a siren and count-down, I think it’s 8 or 10 seconds, 
and then the phone calls 9 1 1. I think I tried this once on my Apple Watch 
where you have the same functionality if you press the side button 5 times 
quickly, but I could easily cancel it. This time I did a 2-finger double tap, 
but that didn’t work, then I got nervous and couldn’t find the right button, 
asked my wife and she tried but of course Voiceover was on. At 3 seconds she 
said “turn off Voiceover” so I triple clicked the home button and she tried to 
cancel it, but it was too late. The 9 1 1 operator came on, I sheepishly 
explained that we just updated to iOS 11 and accidently triggered the call with 
this new feature and he did not sound at all surprised. He did ask if I would 
mind staying on while he gets the police on the line so I could confirm to them 
that everything was OK, I did so, provided my name and confirmed that I was not 
under any sort of duresse and all was good.

In the meantime my wife has myself and my Mum listet as emergency contacts. I 
heard the text messages come in, but we were just barely done with 9 1 1 when 
my Mum called and asked what on earth was wrong… oops… maybe just take my word 
for it that the feature works great, don’t try it if you don’t really need it.

Interestingly enough after all of that the screen displayed a message “Sent 
message to emergency contacts” or something like that and try as we might with 
and without Voiceover we could not figure out a way to get rid of it to get 
back to the home screen. Eventually I ended up turning the phone off and back 
on after 20 or so seconds, then all was good except for as my wife said a 
blinking “Emergency S.O.S is using your location” at the very top right in the 
status bar, even to the right of the battery status. It bugged my wife so much 
that she ended up turning off location services for Emergency S.O.S which is 
under Settings > Privacy > Location Services > System Services. I think maybe 
it would have eventually gone away by itself, but she said it bothered her. 
Maybe in a couple of days I’ll turn it back on and see if that still shows up 
because on my phone location services for this is on and I don’t get this in 
the status bar, probably it was there because it was used.

 

Regards,

Sieghard

Hi Sieghard

Thanks for confirming that this feature definately works. This feature would 
have been a blessing to have had last Friday. My son's Home Health Nurse 
completely blacked out. Thank goodness my partner was home. I was panicking & 
shaking so bad I couldn't dial 911. And using Siri didn't even occur to me.

Hi Sieghard,
I setup my medical tag. After setting it up I check how it would work if 
someone had to get to the emergency info. Well it does work with the iPhone 
locked and my finger print setting on. The only thing is when you push the 
power button to get to the emergency button you have to double tap it an then 
when in the contact list you have to double tap any of those choices. You also 
have to double tap on my  emergency contact in the list to get the iPhone to 
call them. I wonder if the emergency people are going to know how to use the 
iPhone with VO turned on and are they going to know they have to double tap 
links or buttons to make them activate?

Hi Peggy,

If you go to the Health app, tap on the Medical Id tab at the very bottom right 
and then set up your medical Id you will have an on/off switch at the top which 
controls whether your Medical Id will be available from the lock screen.
If you do turn this on, you first have to wake up your phone, then double tap 
on the unlock button, then when you are on the screen with the keypad where you 
enter your Pin you have a button called "Emergency Calls" at the bottom left, 
double tap on that and on the next screen in the exact same location at the 
bottom left will be the "Medical Id" button, tap it and all the information 
including emergency contacts with their relationship to you, name and phone 
numbers will be displayed.
Anybody who has your phone can call any of the contacts listed here without 
having to unlock the phone simply by tapping on their name.

No, anyone can tap on your locked screen's "emergency" button to see it, and 
then they tap on the "medical ID" button from the emergency screen.

RE: Emergency contacts

2017-05-10 Thread Chip Orange
Hi Sieghard,

It does not work quite like this for me, and I think it could be because all of 
my contacts have two or more numbers specified for them.  I believe, when this 
is the case, when you double tap on the contact, you are then forced to choose 
which number is to be listed.

Once I choose a number, I then get the relationship screen (but it took me a 
while to realize this).

Chip

Just to emphasize this one more time, when I do this I am in the Health app, I 
double tap on "Medical Id" at the bottom right, now that my medical Id is set 
up I double tap on "Edit" at the very bottom.
Now when I'm where I can edit the information I swipe past the 3 emergency 
contacts I have already set up, my wife, my brother and my mother, then I am on 
where it says "Add Emergency Contact", Voiceover does not identify this as a 
button, but I double tap on this and my contacts open up.
I now find the contact I want and double tap on it which really is the only 
thing you can do, there is no action rotor or "More Info".
Once I double tap on it I get a screen with a cancel button at the top left, if 
I swipe right from there or touch at the top of the screen Voiceover says 
"Relationship" which is a heading. Underneath this is a list, I have the 
following choices:
Mother
Father
Parent
Brother
Sister
Child
Friend
Spouse
Partner
Assistant
Manager
Other
Roommate
Doctor
Emergency
As soon as I double tap any of these I am back in the main editing screen for 
my medical Id and the person I selected is now listed with the label I chose. 
The name when it is spoken is followed by "Text Field", but double tapping on 
it doesn't do anything, but there is a delete rotor option if you want to 
delete one of them.
If this is not how it works for you then I have no idea why it is different.

Hi again Sieghard,

I still cannot get this to work either.

I see the button labeled "add emergency contact" which opens up your list of 
contacts, but exactly what do you do in this list to choose a contact?  

I have been trying a single finger double tap, but that just opens up all the 
options for the contact (to call, to message, to edit, etc), but I think my 
problem may be that I don't know the proper way to just "select" the contact so 
that I can close the list of contacts.  It's probably not to double tap the 
contact?

Thanks,

Hi,

I'd suggest folks write to apple.com/feedback and under iPhone describe 
concerns they may have about this. I have just done this, and I think if they 
hear from more folks on this issue, the more they would likely look into it.

I emphasized the problems of a sighted emergency worker looking at the iPhone 
of a blind person with voiceover active and screen curtain enabled. Hopefully I 
provided enough clarity, but if others could follow on this (I understand they 
look at each suggestion daily) that maybe a solution could be implemented.

Thanks for considering, Keith

Hi Peggy,

If you go to the Health app, tap on the Medical Id tab at the very bottom right 
and then set up your medical Id you will have an on/off switch at the top which 
controls whether your Medical Id will be available from the lock screen.
If you do turn this on, you first have to wake up your phone, then double tap 
on the unlock button, then when you are on the screen with the keypad where you 
enter your Pin you have a button called "Emergency Calls" at the bottom left, 
double tap on that and on the next screen in the exact same location at the

including emergency contacts with their relationship to you, name and phone

Anybody who has your phone can call any of the contacts listed here without

OK, I found the key to success!  You're not adding an entire

on "add emergency contact", then tap on the contact, and then 
finally tap on one of their phone numbers, and then you are asked 
for the relationship.


I added my wife twice, once for home and once for mobile.

Does this sound right to the rest of you guys?

double tap on that and on the next screen in the exact same location at the 
bottom left will be the "Medical Id" button, tap it and all the information 
including emergency contacts with their relationship to you, name and phone 
numbers will be displayed.
Anybody who has your phone can call any of the contacts listed here without 
having to unlock the phone simply by tapping on their name.

Hi Richard,

Not sure, but you should have a "medical Id" tab in the Health app, it's at the 
bottom right, I have the following from right to left:

Hi Chip,

OK, sorry, I guess this would make sense and this would be similar to how you 
add a contact to Favourites. I guess the reason why I didn't describe it this 
way was because I forgot that this is what happened and when I tried it earlier 
today I used a contact which only had one number listed so it went straight to 
where you select the relationship.

Hi once again!

OK, I found the key to success!  You're not adding an entire contact's info, 
but only one of their phone numbers!  So, you tap on "add emergency contact", 
then tap on the contact, and then finally tap on one of their phone numbers, 
and then you are asked for the relationship.

I added my wife twice, once for home and once for mobile.

Does this sound right to the rest of you guys?

I see the button labeled "add emergency contact" which opens up your list of

I have been trying a single finger double tap, but that just opens up all the

RE: Emergency contacts

2017-05-08 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Just to emphasize this one more time, when I do this I am in the Health app, I 
double tap on "Medical Id" at the bottom right, now that my medical Id is set 
up I double tap on "Edit" at the very bottom.
Now when I'm where I can edit the information I swipe past the 3 emergency 
contacts I have already set up, my wife, my brother and my mother, then I am on 
where it says "Add Emergency Contact", Voiceover does not identify this as a 
button, but I double tap on this and my contacts open up.
I now find the contact I want and double tap on it which really is the only 
thing you can do, there is no action rotor or "More Info".
Once I double tap on it I get a screen with a cancel button at the top left, if 
I swipe right from there or touch at the top of the screen Voiceover says 
"Relationship" which is a heading. Underneath this is a list, I have the 
following choices:
Mother
Father
Parent
Brother
Sister
Child
Friend
Spouse
Partner
Assistant
Manager
Other
Roommate
Doctor
Emergency
As soon as I double tap any of these I am back in the main editing screen for 
my medical Id and the person I selected is now listed with the label I chose. 
The name when it is spoken is followed by "Text Field", but double tapping on 
it doesn't do anything, but there is a delete rotor option if you want to 
delete one of them.
If this is not how it works for you then I have no idea why it is different.

Sieghard

RE: Emergency contacts

2017-05-08 Thread Chip Orange
Hi once again!

OK, I found the key to success!  You're not adding an entire contact's info, 
but only one of their phone numbers!  So, you tap on "add emergency contact", 
then tap on the contact, and then finally tap on one of their phone numbers, 
and then you are asked for the relationship.

I added my wife twice, once for home and once for mobile.

Does this sound right to the rest of you guys?

Thanks,

Chip

Hi again Sieghard,

I still cannot get this to work either.

I see the button labeled "add emergency contact" which opens up your list of 
contacts, but exactly what do you do in this list to choose a contact?  

I have been trying a single finger double tap, but that just opens up all the 
options for the contact (to call, to message, to edit, etc), but I think my 
problem may be that I don't know the proper way to just "select" the contact so 
that I can close the list of contacts.  It's probably not to double tap the 
contact?

Thanks,

Chip

RE: Emergency contacts

2017-05-05 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi,

I am not sure why you don't see the option to have your medical Id information 
displayed on the lock screen. Are you maybe running an older version of iOS? 
Not sure when the Medical Id became available, but I think it was there in iOS 
9 already, but I can't remember if the Health app was there in iOS 9 so maybe 
it was there but in a different place. Anyways, here is what I do, this of 
course assumes I have gone to the Health app, tapped on "Medical Id' at the 
bottom right and set up my Medical Id with information including emergency 
contacts:

I press the home button (I have Touch Id set up, so I use a finger I didn't 
register because on the 6S/6S Plus or 7/7 Plus Touch Id is so fast that it 
usually unlocks the phone even if you press the home button super fast with the 
finger you registered)
You can of course also wake up the phone by pressing the power button.
Now I am on the lock screen where it shows the time and date and at the bottom 
it says "Press Home to Unlock", I double tap on that and now the keypad comes 
up asking me to enter my passcode.
At the bottom in the middle (just above the home key) is the 0, on the right in 
the bottom corner is a "Cancel" button, on the left in the bottom corner is the 
"Emergency" button.
Double tap on Emergency, you are now on the screen again with the keypad where 
you can make an emergency call, e.g. you can call 9 1 1 from this screen.
If you put your finger on the home button as a reference the "Call" button is 
straight up maybe an inch, if you slide your finger off the home button and 
almost straight to the right and just a bit up (maybe 2 o'clock, you have 
another "Cancel" button.
Do the same going to the left to about the 10 o'clock direction or even between 
9 and 10 o'clock and you find the "Medical Id" button.
Of course you have to enable to show the Medical Id on the lock screen which 
you do in the Health app under Medical Id.
If you now double tap on the Medical Id button all your information shows up, 
here is what it looks like using ficticious information:

Top line: Medical Id from the left across and the middle, on the top right is a 
"Done" button
Swipe right (next line) it says: John Smith, May 5, 1977 (40), Organ Donor
Next line (swipe right): Medical Conditions
Next line (swipe right): Blind, diabetic
Next line (swipe right), the first emergency contact is listed, swipe right 
again the next one and so on as many as you select in your medical Id:
Spouse, Jane Smith, +1 (212) 555-
 Father, Tom Smith, +1 (212) 555-
Brother, Jim Smith, +1 (212) 555-
Doctor, Dr. Bill Walker, +1 (212) 555-
Underneath this, if you entered the information is listed your weight, height 
and blood type and lastly at the bottom it says "Updated" followed by whichever 
date you last updated your medical Id.
It is very quick to get to this although my explanation sounds slow, but once I 
wake up the phone and I'm on the lock screen I just double tap on "Press Home 
to unlock", then I touch at the bottom left and I can hit "Emergency" every 
time, I double tap, touch again in the same spot where now is the Medical Id 
button and I double tap and I'm there. Of course a sighted person can do it 
even quicker because they don't even have to doubl tap, they tap once on 
Emergency, the Medical Id button shows up they tap on that and have the 
information.
I wouldn't be surprise if first responders like cops, firefighters and 
daramedics know exactly where to look.

Regards,
Sieghard

2017-05-05 Thread Richard Turner
Once upon a time, long, long, ago, someone had suggested printing out the 
emergency contacts, taking a picture, and setting that picture as the lock 
screen wall paper.
I never did that so I don't know if that would work.

Yes, this sounds right, but for some reason I could only get my emergency 
contacts to show up on the lock screen, even when doing it via the Health app, 
only when I named them beginning with the letters "ICE".  I tried to use 
existing contacts and it would not show them.  Did anyone else run into this?

If you go to the Health app, tap on Medical Id at the bottom right you can set 
up all sorts of important information including any medical conditions,

RE: Emergency contacts

2017-05-03 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
I assume it does, but even at 0% screen brightness sighted people can still 
read the screen just fine, it may be more difficult in bright sunlight and it's 
not easy when looking from an angle to the side, but if somebody looks straight 
at it they can read it. In any case, while keeping the screen brightness down 
helps, I never felt it made a huge difference and now I simply turn auto 
brightness. If you don't want to do this and still make sure it's easy for a 
sighted person to see your screen while saving battery just keep it at 5
% or 8%. Of course people also have to consider the drawback of turning on the 
screen curtain, most sighted people will not know how to turn this off and if 
you want emergency contact/medical information to be available at all times 
turning on the screen curtain effectively prevents this information from being 
available to an emergency responder.

Sieghard

RE: Emergency contacts

2017-05-02 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi,

If you go to the Health app, tap on Medical Id at the bottom right you can set 
up all sorts of important information including any medical conditions, 
medications, alergies, your height, weight, whether you are an organ doner and 
who your emergency contacts are. You can also specify at the top if this 
information should be available on the lock screen.

Regards,
Sieghard

Hello does anyone know if it is possible to add emergency contacts to the 
phone in the event that something happens and a stranger needs to contact 
someone on your behalf. I have seen some apps where this is possible but 
they are really for the side it individuals.
Thank you

I know several emergency medical technicians in a couple of different states. 
Note that I live in the United States. They have all told me that if you put a 
contact under capital I CE in your contacts list, this will be one of the first 
places that emergency personnel look. I CE stands for in case of emergency. I 
decided to do both the Health app and the I CE contact.

Never-mind what I said about it being a graphic you cannot read, just tap the 
"emergency" button, then the "medical ID" button, and you'll be able to verify 
all the info you entered.

Yes, there are articles you can Google for because this was added as a feature 
to one of the IOS updates (I've done it on my phone).  It displays your 
emergency contacts as "wall paper" on your lock screen, so they are always 
visible without anyone needing to unlock your phone.

You *must* create new contacts with a first or last name of ICE   Then the articles tell you to put the 
person's full name in the company field, along with a relationship description. 
 

This creates a graphic, so you yourself won't be able to verify the info is 
being displayed.  And as someone said, this is part of the Health app, so I 
think the article's instructions I followed may have required you to do 
something in the Health app after you create these contacts.

Hth,

Hello does anyone know if it is possible to add emergency contacts to the

someone on your behalf. I have seen some apps where this is possible but

You can open the Health app, then go to the bottom and hit the Medical ID tab. 
In this section you can add all sorts of your medical info; including emergency 
contacts. First though you must hit the edit button, in order to add info.
Once you're done with this: If you keep your IPhone in the unlocked mode, an 
emergency worker just has to unlock the phone like normal, then open your 
health app.
But if you've got your phone in password protected mode; all the emergency 
worker has to do is hit the emergency button underneath the password entry 
field and it will takem directly to your Health app's Medical ID portion.
It's pretty cool and I feel much better with all this stuff set up properly.

Re: Emergency contacts

2017-05-02 Thread Donna
You can add emergency contacts & other important health info into the health 
app. The only drawback is that unless you have a pass code or use fingerprint 
to unlock your phone emergency personel will have to know about the app & will 
have to search your phone for the emergency info. With a pass code the 
emergency info is accessible on the lock screen. 

Another suggestion is to enter the word ICE in all capital letters followering 
your emergency contacts within the phone app.

Re: emergency alerts and T-mobile

2017-03-29 Thread Wayne Merritt
I haven't gotten alerts from T-Mobile, but I have also turned off the
government/Amber alerts. Like others, I use other apps for weather
notifications, like Dark Sky and NOAA Weather International. I think I
have the free Red Cross Tornado app to send tornado alerts, but that
hasn't happened yet where I live.

On it. And I am three hours away from where you are. And the only alert that 
that was, it was one amber alert missing person. But I think that T-Mobile is 
the very last company that is getting such alerts when there is severe weather. 
However, interns of weather being severe in my area, I have an app downloaded
