What a helper sees
Everything a helper needs. Nothing they don’t.
A teacher, a coach or a stranger at the park sees exactly what you’ve chosen to share, in the order they need it.
- 1Who they areTheir photo, age and blood group, so a helper knows they have the right child.
- 2Allergies, by severityLife-threatening first, each with your own instructions.
- 3Adrenaline, and where it isEach device with a photo and the spot it’s kept.
- 4Medications and plansEmergency medicines flagged, with photos, and the action plan their doctor signed.
- 5Who to callTap-to-call contacts in the order you choose, and 000.
- 6Step-by-step help in a reactionAllergy Response walks them through anaphylaxis first aid.
The difference
Most IDs show information. TapCare helps.
| Feature | Info-only ID |  |
|---|---|---|
| Shows their allergies and who to call | ||
| Walks a helper through anaphylaxis, step by step | ||
| Shows where their adrenaline is kept, with photos | ||
| Emails you when their profile is opened | ||
| Reminds you before medication expires | ||
| Logs every tap, and what the helper did | ||
| Switch off a lost band instantly | ||
| Free online profile, no subscription |
One honest difference: an engraved ID can be read without a phone. TapCare needs an NFC phone and an internet connection to open the profile.

peace of mind.

- 02

03Anyone can tap
A teacher, coach or stranger holds their phone to the band. No app, no login.
Good for families
Buying for more than one?
Each band opens one child’s profile at a time, and every child can have more than one band: one for school, one for the weekend bag.
Siblings
Add each child to the same account. Their bands, contacts and tap history live side by side.Spares and grandparents
Extra bands can open the same profile, so a spare in the nappy bag works just like the one on their wrist.Linking is done for you
If you have one profile when we ship, your bands arrive linked to it. Otherwise, choose a profile in your dashboard; there are no codes to type.Hand-me-downs
Move a band to another child’s profile from your dashboard whenever you like.

FAQs
Questions about
the band.
Each band fits wrists from 10 cm to 15.5 cm, with an adjustable snap and a row of sizing holes. That range generally fits children from infancy to around 8–10 years old, but every child is different, so measure their wrist if you’re unsure. It should sit snugly with room to slide a finger underneath, and it shouldn’t slip over their hand. Check the fit every few months as they grow.
