How to Change an Emergency Contact on iPhone

What to Know





* Once you've set up your emergency contacts, you can add, edit, or delete that contact information at any time.

* The Emergency SOS system will alert emergency contacts to your location if and when you use the feature. 













iPhone's Emergency SOS system really does save lives. The feature allows iPhone users to quickly call for help, alert their emergency contacts, and ping their location. If you've already set up your emergency contacts but want to change, edit, or delete emergency contact information, it's a relatively simple process. Here's how to change emergency contacts on your iPhone.

Once you've learned how to set up your emergency contacts in the Health app, you may eventually need to update that information. If you want to change the emergency contacts' titles, add another emergency contact, or delete an old emergency contact, you can do so by going to the Health app. You can go to Settings to view a list of your emergency contacts, but you can only edit and update the information in the Health app.

* Tap Summary.








* Tap your profile icon in the top right corner.








* Tap Medical ID.








* Tap Edit.

* You can choose from a long list of titles.








* To delete an emergency contact, tap the red minus button.








* Tap Delete.








* To add an emergency contact, tap Add Emergency Contact.








* From here, you can select a person from your contact list.











And that's how you change emergency contact information on your iPhone.
