The Health app offers secure access to information about your vaccinations, allergies, conditions, medications, and more (not available in all countries or regions).
You can use a QR code or a link from a healthcare provider or authority to download a test result record, and you can set up automatic downloads for a range of health records from supporting healthcare organizations. Those organizations can securely send records of your allergies, medical conditions, medications, labs, vaccinations, and more straight to Health.
Note: When iPhone is locked with Face ID, Touch ID, or a passcode, all of the health data in the Health app—other than what you add to your Medical ID—is encrypted.
