Why a card helps
Explaining allergies out loud is easy to get wrong, especially in a busy restaurant or when handing a child over to someone else. A card puts everything in writing, in the same order every time.
Where to use it
- Restaurants: show it to your server or send it ahead when booking. See how to use an allergy card at restaurants.
- School and childcare: send a card for each child.
- Family and friends: share it before a meal at someone else’s home.
- Travel: keep it in your photos so it’s ready without a connection.
How to create one
- Go to Profiles and open the profile.
- Tap Share Profile.
- Send the card as an image, or save it to your photos.
