Today’s apps can do almost anything. Want to sound like rapper Lil’ Jon? Sure! Determined to impress your friends at dinner? Watch me flick my virtual Zippo® lighter!
But an app that can help you in an emergency? Yep, there’s one for that.
Donate Life America and LegalZoom have partnered together to develop a free “In Case of Emergency” (ICE) app for the iPhone. This simple to use, yet life-saving, app houses portions of your medical history in one spot so you can have it on you at all times, providing first responders one-touch access to critical information.
The ICE app allows you to list and store your medical conditions, blood type, allergies and medications. You can also include insurance information and whether or not you are registered to be a donor in your state. To download your free app, just visit www.ice-app.net.
We all have those apps we just can’t live without. Here’s one that could just save your life.
