What if I told you that you could put an ICE Contact on your Samsung Galaxy with everything it needs to have in it to save your life, in only 2 minutes?
In fact, even if you already have an ICE Contact on your regular Samsung Galaxy or Samsung Galaxy Note, I guarantee that you’re probably missing a few key pieces of information.
And with the way the world has been lately from hurricanes and wildfires to Coronavirus it’s more important than ever! Having an ICE contact is an awesome way keep your family safe and connected no matter WHAT is happening around you.
So what are you waiting for? Grab your phone and let’s get started!
1 Put the word ICE, all capitals, in the First Name field.
2 Put your ICE Contact’s first and last name in the Last Name field.
3 Type in each and every one of your contact’s phone numbers.
4 Type in all of your contact’s email addresses — again, every one you have for them.
5 Type in all of your contact’s social media handles/user names in the “Website” section of your contact. You never know what type of communications will be working in an emergency.
Many people have reached loved ones on Facebook and Twitter, when cell phone and landline service was down.
6 If you don’t already have a field on your phone for Relationship, you can add one by tapping “Add New Field” and choosing the one called, “Relationship”. Now you can choose Spouse, Friend, Parent — however this particular contact is related to you.
7 Your own allergies, medications and medical history go in the notes section. Even better capitalize the words ALLERGIES, MEDICATIONS etc. to ensure that they’re seen.
8 You can also add your physician’s names and phone numbers in the notes section and if you like, a link to your own medical history form. If you don’t have one, you can download one of ours.
9 Is your contact in different locations on different days? Add that in the notes section as well.
10 And finally, never, ever put your social security number or insurance member number into your ICE Contact. You may put the name of your insurance company and their customer service number into the Notes section if you like, but as long as your emergency contact can provide that information when he or she gets to the hospital, it’s probably not necessary.
And by the way, when you set up your Medical ID in your iPhone, don’t forget that in an emergency, you can have your phone share the information in your Medical ID with physicians and first responders. In Health, click on your profile, then tap Medical ID, then Edit and turn on “Share During Emergency Call”.
And there you have it. One fully loaded ICE Contact. Two Minutes.
While you’re feeling proactive, don’t forget to put ICE Contacts on your spouse’s and kid’s phones too, along with each other’s contact information.
As amazing as our 2 Minute ICE Contact is, we have a high-powered, fully loaded version in our book “The ICE My Phone Kit” along with step by step directions for ICEing other phones like the IPhone 11, regular Androids and even phones that are, shall we say, not all that smart.
