When every second counts

The ResQBand
Epinephrine System.

Six pieces that work as one. A Tap Card that speaks for you in an emergency, a tracker that will not let the epinephrine be forgotten, a temperature watch, and the carry gear built around them.

01 · Tap Card

A one-minute film with on-screen text and no sound. One: one tap on the ResQBand Tap Card opens an emergency page on most phones, with no app and no login, in the helper's language (English, French, Spanish, Chinese or Punjabi). The card comes in red or black, printed for an auto-injector or a nasal spray. Two: when the helper presses the alert button, your contacts who opted in are alerted: the text they get says someone tapped your emergency card and may be helping you, with the helper's location, and a phone call follows if they chose one; alerts are free, with no subscription. Three: the Forget-Me-Not Epi Tracker can ping your phone when you walk away without your epinephrine, on iPhone or Android phones that support left-behind alerts. Four: the Temp-Alert Disc warns your phone when a parked car climbs from 22 to 41 degrees. Five: no app for the helper, and a free one for you: your card and contacts, expiry reminders, temperature readings and food recall alerts, on the web, iPhone and Android. Six: six pieces, one system, listed beside a photo of the kit: Tap Card, Epi Tracker, Temp-Alert Disc, Wrist Band, Thermal Pack and the free app.

01 · ResQBand Tap Card

One tap
speaks for you.

For the helper: no app · No login · Most phones

A phone that taps the card opens the emergency page (most can: an iPhone XS or newer, or Android with NFC on): the manufacturer's use instructions first, then a pinned Call 911 button, who you are and where the epinephrine is. It works even if your own phone is dead, and every tap is documented.

Always free
Use instructions and Call 911 on every card, registered or not

The red ResQBand Tap Card: severe allergy, epinephrine inside, for emergency use, use immediately, call 911, and the tap ring for phones

02 · Family alert

Family alerted,

with one more tap from the helper.

When the person helping presses the alert button on the emergency page, up to two contacts get a text with the helper's map location. Each contact turns alerts on themselves by texting JOIN, and can text STOP at any time. Contacts who want a phone call as well can turn that on too.

Free with every card · Up to 2 contacts

03 · Forget-Me-Not Epi Tracker

Don't leave

04 · Temp-Alert Disc

Epinephrine hates hot cars.

Epinephrine is meant to live at room temperature, and summer dashboards, beach bags and rink-side benches are not room temperature. The Temp-Alert Disc logs the temperature right beside the medication and alerts your phone when a reading leaves the range you set.

Sensor
Sealed temperature sensor, accurate to ±0.5°C from 0 to 60°C
Alerts
The free ResQBand app on your phone while it's open, and email
Records
Readings kept in your ResQBand account, as a chart and a spreadsheet
Thermal Pack, $34.95$24.99. Foil-lined insulation slows heat and cold, with room for two EpiPens or a neffy 2-pack beside the disc.

Illustration. Set the alert range to the storage range printed on your medication's label. The ResQBand app alerts you while it's open on a phone within range of the disc.

05 · The free ResQBand app

No app for the helper.
A free one for you.

Whoever taps your card gets your emergency page in their phone's browser, with nothing to install and no login. The ResQBand app is your side of it: where you keep the card current, see every tap, and get your reminders and recall alerts. It comes free with every card.

What's in the app

Everything your card does for you, in one place.

Your card

  • Your profile, syncedYour name, where your epinephrine is, a note, your allergies and the details for paramedics. Change them here and your card's page changes with them.
  • Your contactsWho has turned alerts on and who gets a phone call too, with their invite a tap away.
  • Tap historyEvery tap, alert, phone call and dose, with the time, ready to copy for your doctor.
  • Spare and lost cardsLink a spare card for the backpack or wallet. Lost one? Report it and its page stops showing your details.
  • School share linkA read-only page for the school nurse, a camp or a sitter. Always current, and off whenever you say.

Your medication

  • Expiry remindersEmails 30 and 7 days before it expires, and after it's used, with a reorder link.
  • Temp-Alert Disc readingsThe temperature beside your medication as a chart, and an alert when it leaves your range.
  • Your kit, a tap awayFind My or Find Hub for your Epi Tracker, how-to guides, and what a helper sees on your card.

Your food

  • Recalls for your allergiesThe official allergen recalls from Canada and the US, with an email when a new one comes out.
  • Ingredient checkSnap the ingredient list (or paste it) and it flags the words for your allergens, in English or French. It never calls a food safe.

The person helping never needs the app or an account: your card's page opens on most phones with a tap, even if your own phone is dead.

More questions answeredInsights and guides

Does any of this include the medication?

The accessories do not, but neffy and EpiPen are sold right here: both are behind-the-counter medications, dispensed and shipped by our licensed Canadian pharmacy partner with a pharmacist reviewing every order. Third-party coverage may be available through our partner pharmacy; contact us to inquire.

Is there a subscription?

No. Registering your card, the alerts and the ResQBand app are free: your live profile, contact alerts with the helper's location and documented tap history come with the card. The manufacturer's use instructions and the Call 911 button work on every card, registered or not.

Does the helper need an app?

No. Most phones open the emergency page with a tap, the same tap used for contactless payments: an iPhone XS or newer, or an Android phone with NFC turned on. No app, no login, no camera.

So is there a ResQBand app?

Yes, for you, never for the helper. It's free: open getresqband.com/account on your phone and add it to your home screen, and it opens like an app, and the iPhone and Android versions also listen to the Temp-Alert Disc. Food recalls and the ingredient check work straight away, with no account. Sign in with a code we email you (no password) and it also scans labels with your camera and keeps your card's profile and contacts up to date, with your tap history, expiry reminders, recall emails for your allergies, spare and lost cards and a share link for the school nurse.

Who receives the alerts?

Up to two emergency contacts you choose. You send each one an invite, and they turn alerts on themselves by texting JOIN from their phone. We never text anyone who hasn't opted in, and they can text STOP at any time.

Is ResQBand a medical device?

No. It is a carrying accessory and emergency-information service. It does not diagnose, treat or administer anything, and it never replaces calling 911.
