Twiceme Reviews

There’s a specific touch point on your phone where you need to be exactly on it in order to upload your iD. The little this app pamphlet/tag your equipment comes with, has a diagram of where the touch point is exactly.

I left a 1 star review initially because I could not for the life of me upload my ID. Until I re-examined the that tag, saw the diagram and placed my iPhone directly onto that point (on the iPhone right next to the camera) - as before I was just blindly placing my phone on the equipment like a grocery store card reader and it wasn’t working - even moving it around didn’t work. It has to be directly on that touch point

I do believe the developers can make this more clear in Twiceme , I nearly threw out that tag with the diagram on it, gave up and left a bad review like everyone else here.

Most people would think that using the nfc tag in a mountain bike helmet would be as simple as using your phone to pay at the grocery store. If you are using Twiceme, you’d be wrong. You have to place you phone in the EXACT right spot in order for it to read the nfc tag. I was able to get my medical info uploaded, but good luck if anyone tries to read the tag to access it. This combination of helmet and app would actually probably be a safe spot to store your SSN, credit card info, or anything else you don’t want other people to ever find. (Sarcasm, for those that missed it).I’m not sure if it is the helmet manufacturers fault or the apps fault, but the experience is pathetic none the less.

1. Download app for Apple
2. Use iPhone 13 Pro
3. Fill in the basic info for yourself , emergency contacts etc
4. It then asks me to scan the helmet” place your phone in the equipment to access the safety information” It opens and says Ready to scan. With other apps when you have ready to scan, it opens camera to scan something. Twiceme does nothing. I am on wifi , Bluetooth , can access other things , can scan other things. No clue where to go from here. Just bought this POC helmet because of the safety feature such as this but it doesn’t work

This is a fantastic solution and should be used by anyone with a this app NFC medical ID. After entering my personal information and contact data, the upload took seconds with my POC cycling helmet and this was using an older Apple iPhone X with the latest iOS. Highly recommended!!

I have an iPhone 12 and a tectal helmet, creating a profile and uploading to helmet took less than 2 minutes. Maybe people is having issues with older phones and OS

Way too difficult just to set up. How is someone who finds you supposed to know what app to download or what to do if they have never heard of this. Even if they do, they will likely give up when this thing fails to scan for minutes.

Going to stick with the ol' tape the info to the inside of my helmet and carry other important info on me method. This just seems like a data grab considering how poorly it works.

Hh there is a cumbersome interface for entering information, and then your phone will never find your helmet. No matter how many times you restart Twiceme , restart your phone, say prayers over your helmet, nothing. This feature was initially very attractive to me but if it doesn’t work then it’s like safety handles on a rodeo bull. Nice thought, right? But not good in practice.

Twiceme doesn’t even give me the option to create profile or upload my medical information. It just has a button that states “Tap Here To Read Tag”, which does nothing. Unfortunately Twiceme does not work and I have an iPhone.

Got this feature on my new poc helmet and rarely can my iPhone 11 Pro ever find the chip (using correct nft placement for iPhone). Better to have this information elsewhere on you as it is just super unreliable.

Will not scan at all, either from the main page, or the ‘upload’ tab. Tried multiple times, all angles of phone, after I created a profile.

It simply doesn't connect...so there is no way to upload my medical information onto the helmet as advertised.

App is not able to scan and detect.
Also app doesn't even show up in settings to enable NFC

Title says it all. This system is garbage, I hope the helmet works better than Twiceme

I placed my phone over the sensor and does nothing.

Just got POC Kortal helmet and been trying to connect the helmet for 3 hours. Fix Twiceme!!!

Bought a 2022/23 product with this app as a feature. Tried for a couple hours to scan the NFC code with an iPhone 14. No luck. I’m really not sure how this would ever be useful in the real world if it’s so difficult to read the NFC tag in a controlled environment.

Never ended up getting it working. Just have a huge ugly icon on my helmet I guess.

I’m not sure if it’s because people who come up with these ideas don’t work in the industry or the ideas themselves are not well thought out.

It’s an amazing idea to have an NFC chip in my helmet (or whatever article of clothing/gear you have) with my private personal data and medical history that can assist medical professionals including first responders in rendering me aide in the event of an emergency.

HOWEVER, privacy is a big concern and a grave overlook by developers. This NFC chip can be read by anyone and is in no way encrypted or secure. Of course, if it was encrypted, only authorized people can access it...and of course would defeat the selling point of the concept for its developer to make money so I feel that this technology was pushed out to market to make money with the guise of public/personal safety!

Why do I say that? Well, the tech is so now that 99.99% of first responders and medical/rescue professionals don’t even know it exists or even to use it because it’s not a standard anywhere!

Next to that, Twiceme is a joke! I mean you can’t tell me you instill public confidence when the first thing I see when I go to “Create profile” in Twiceme is “Medical info deceases & disabilities”!!!!

REALLY? You mean for me to input my “DECEASES”???

Please, please, please at least have your app professionally developed, debugged, and streamlined before proclaiming to be lifesaving anything...!!!!!
