How to Switch on Velindre Keep Me Safe App Notifications

 

There are two ways to enable Keep Me Safe checklist notifications on your iPhone

  1. When you first download the app, select ‘yes’ to receiving push notifications
  2. Edit the notification settings on your iPhone

 

To edit the settings, first locate the settings app on your iPhone. The settings app will look like a silver cog. It can be found in multiple places.

Make sure sounds and badges are clicked so they swipe to green.

Show previews in the lock screen: Always (Default).

 

The changes will save automatically, and you will receive checklist notifications on your lock screen next time your checklist window is open.
