free



Shows your emergency info, even if your phone is locked. Free with no ads!


Note: May not work properly on newer versions of Android because of changes to how notifications appear on the lock screen. Also may not work properly on some Xiaomi phones (and other brands that change how Android notifications work). Please contact me if you cant get your info to appear on your lock screen.I.C.E. Lock is a simple, free app that lets you show your emergency info on your phones existing lockscreen.Its like a Medic Alert bracelet for your phone - emergency responders can see the emergency info they need, even if youre unconscious, and even if your phone is locked. But they dont have full access to your phone, because youve locked it like you normally do.Unlike other emergency apps, I.C.E. Lock does not make you install a custom lock screen. It works with your current security, so you can keep your lock screen looking just the way you want it to.I.C.E. Lock does this by showing your emergency info as an ongoing "notification", just like those used for incoming emails, texts, and so on. But this notification is always there - it wont go away unless you decide to turn it off. And it stays out of the way, using a lower priority setting than other notifications.Until you touch it, the notification simply shows "My Emergency Info - swipe down for more".If someone swipes down, your emergency details are shown - a large headline and up to 6 or 7 lines of smaller text. If your phone is locked, thats all they can see. If your phone is unlocked, they can tap for more information that you control.Setting up I.C.E. Lock is very simple:- Enter the emergency info that you want to be shown on your lock screen.- Preview the notification until you get it looking the way you want.- Thats it!Once set up, this app needs no further attention. The notification will appear on your status bar and your lock screen, even if you reboot your phone. It will keep doing its job unless you decide to turn it off.Best of all, I.C.E. Lock is FREE with NO ADS. I created it for my own use, and I thought other people might find it handy too.This app was developed using B4A by Anywhere Software.- Can now customise all visible text in notification- Removed notification badge from app icon (Android 8+)- Updated icons

I have used this app for a few years now and it's gives me a sense of comfort to know if anything happens to me , my family can contact me and knows the blood type etc without having to guess the password on mymobile. Best thing is there's no Ads or required purchase. Thanks to the developer.

I have had I.C.E. Lock on my android phone for years. Today I wanted to edit my medications but I am unable to expand the section for any section. How can I add and delete information I have previously entered. I have a Samsung Galaxy S20FE 5G.

No updates in 2 years? The lock screen display is very sporatic now that Android 11 is in place on my LG v60 dual screen. Could ya give it a cursory glance, maybe a once over to see if something can be tweaked... when you get a minute.

A must have app for anyone with multiple medications & medical challenges. It's been on every phone I've owned for close to a decade. Vital medical information at the your fingertips & those of first responders should you need emergency medical treatment.

I've had another app on my phone but I can't get the same app on my tablet. I'm very much wanting to switch but it does need the ability for a photo.

I got a new phone and couldnt get any of the other apps to work w lockscreen. This one does. I do wish it has a place for allergies that would show on popup.

This app was useful when I was hospitalized and unconscious. Checked for my medications, allergies, doctors, emergency contacts, and more. I highly recommend this app!
