I haven't checked it myself. I do run 10.0.2 but haven't setup the medical id because I don’t have any medical conditions for which it would be useful and because if I am ever found unconscious or completely out of it so badly that I can't identify myself, it will be completely trivial to work out who I am. > In short though, Medical ID is exactly what I'd expect from Apple > users who merely want to *feel* safe, without actually *being* safe. Even sillier than you usually manage/even more of a pathetic excuse for a troll than you usually manage.
