The Acadian I.C.E. app is offered free of charge as a public service from Acadian Ambulance Service. The Acadian I.C.E. (In Case of Emergency) app creates an emergency contact banner for your home screen or lock screen. If you have an emergency and are unable to communicate, or if your phone is lost, authorities will be able to contact your designated emergency contact -- even if your phone is locked!

Many people have an “ICE” contact listed in their contact list, but if your phone is locked, your list cannot be accessed. The Acadian I.C.E. app solves that problem by putting your emergency contact name and phone number on your home screen and/or lock screen.

The app also allows users to store info regarding current medications, medication allergies, and health conditions. This information, accessible only after the phone has been unlocked by the user or the emergency contact, can ensure medical personnel are informed of any special needs or conditions you may have.
