Life's essentials in one place
Guides, emergency contacts, insurance policies, and routes, each one tap from the home screen.
13 guides, ready offline
CPR, choking, severe bleeding, traffic accidents, phone scams, rental deposit disputes, lost parcels, and more. Search them or filter by category, even without a connection.
Step by step when it counts
Each guide is broken into clear steps you can check off as you go. Edit any step, or add your own steps and categories.
Reach family in one tap
Save family, your doctor, or your lawyer. Call them in one tap, or send an SOS text to all of them at once. If you allow location access, the text includes a map link to where you are.
Never miss a renewal
Keep your car, health, and home insurance in one place: policy number, claims hotline, and agent. Get a reminder 30 days before a policy expires and on the day it does.
Save the trips you take most

Q&A
Is Life Tips free?
Yes. Life Tips is free and shows a banner ad at the bottom of the home screen. Emergency screens never show ads. An optional auto-renewing monthly subscription, Remove Ads, removes the banner ad, and all features stay free. The App Store shows the price before you confirm. It renews automatically unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the period. You can manage or cancel it in your Apple Account settings, and Restore Purchases in the app turns ad removal back on after a reinstall or on a new device.
Do the guides work without internet?
Yes. The 13 built-in guides work offline. Adding your location to an SOS text and opening routes in Google Maps need a connection.
Do I need an account?
No. Life Tips doesn't need an account. Your ICE card stays on your device, and you can export a backup of your data and import it later.
Which devices and languages are supported?
Life Tips runs on iPhone and iPad with iOS 18 or later, in English and Chinese.
