Your life changes. New doctors, new city, new allergies. Keeping your profile current ensures responders have accurate data when seconds count.

When to Update

Don’t wait for annual reminders. Update immediately when:

  • You start or stop any medication
  • You’re diagnosed with a new condition
  • You develop new allergies
  • You change phone numbers or addresses

How to Update: Quick and Simple

  1. Tap your NFC tag with your smartphone
  2. Profile page opens automatically
  3. Click “Edit Profile” (verify with email)
  4. Make changes and save

Managing multiple profiles is just as easy—select the profile you want to update.

Pet Profile Updates

Pet profiles need updates too:

  • New vaccination records
  • Medication changes
  • Vet changes
  • Updated photo as pet ages

Just like human profiles, keeping pet info current ensures faster reunification.

  • Permanent: Home address, physician, regular contacts
  • Travel: Current hotel, insurance, itinerary

When you travel, add travel-specific info. When you return, switch back.
