BRYKK Guide · Medical Card

Medical Card

In an emergency, first responders need to know about your allergies and medications in seconds — not after they unlock your phone. BRYKK puts that info on your lock screen, exactly where it needs to be.

What's on the card

  • Your name, age, and emergency contact
  • Blood type
  • Allergies (food, drug, environmental)
  • Current medications
  • Pre-existing conditions
  • Organ donor status
  • Primary doctor + insurance info (optional)

Setting it up

1

Pull from Apple Health

BRYKK reads from Apple Health's Medical ID, so if you've already filled it out there, you're done. Settings → Family → Medical Card → tap Sync from Apple Health.
2

Or fill it in directly in BRYKK

If you don't use Apple Health Medical ID, you can type the info directly into BRYKK. The form takes about 2 minutes to fill out.
3

Add the lock screen widget

Long-press your lock screen → Customize → tap to add widgets → search for BRYKK → pick the Medical Card widget. Drop it on your lock screen so it's visible without unlocking.

Translation for international travel

BRYKK can translate your medical card on demand. Tap any field on the card and BRYKK shows the translated version in your destination country's primary language — “Penicillin allergy” becomes “Alergia a la penicilina” in Spain.

When you trigger SOS in a foreign country, the medical card auto-translates so the local responders can read it.

Crash auto-display

If BRYKK detects a crash and you don't respond to the “Are you OK?” prompt, the medical card automatically displays full-screen on your lock screen so first responders see it the moment they pick up your phone.

This is the killer feature for parents — your kid's Medical Card with their food allergies and asthma meds is one tap away on their lock screen, even if they're unconscious.

Privacy

Your medical card lives only on your device's Keychain and (optionally) syncs to your iCloud Keychain so it's available on all of YOUR devices. It is NEVER shared with other family members, the BRYKK developers, or any third party. Apple's Keychain encryption is end-to-end.

💡
You can hide individual fields from the lock screen if they're sensitive (like a mental health diagnosis you don't want random people seeing). The card respects per-field visibility settings.
