Everything on your phone

Do it all on the phone itself — the card has to end up there. You need an email address. Nothing else is required except your name and a password.

1. Open medicus.global on your phone

   Nothing to download.

2. Tap the small QR icon in the top right corner

   That is My Medicus. You are there.

3. Choose “Sign up” and fill in the required fields

   Email, full name, a password of at least 6 characters, and a 6-digit PIN typed twice. The PIN lets a paramedic read your medical details — it is printed on your card, so you never have to remember it.

4. Tick the consent box and tap “Create My Medicus”

   Now fill in what matters to you: blood type, allergies, daily medication, next of kin. Then tap “Save changes”.

1. Tap point 2 — “Save as lock screen”

   Your card appears as a picture. Press and hold on it until the menu appears, and choose “Add to Photos”.

2. Settings → Wallpaper → choose the picture

   Now your name, blood type and QR code can be read without unlocking the phone — also by a paramedic who does not know you.

1. Open medicus.global, tap the QR icon, choose “Log in”

   Your email and the password you chose. Then tap point 1 — “Edit information”. The fields are locked until you do.

2. Away from home? Go to points 10.2 and 10.3

   Enter the country and the address where you are staying now. It appears on your card under your name. Leave them empty and your home address is shown. Finish with “Save changes”.
