Access the NHS via app and 111 online
The NHS app is a simple and secure way to access a range of NHS services on your smartphone or tablet, including booking appointments and ordering repeat prescriptions.
The NHS app is owned and run by the NHS. It is a simple way to access a range of NHS services on your smartphone or tablet.
It keeps your data safe and secure. Once you’ve downloaded the app you will need to set up an NHS login and prove who you are. The app then securely connects to information from your GP surgery. By linking to your GP record, it lets you access your medicines, order repeat prescriptions and indicate whether you wish to donate your organs. You can also use it to access the NHS111 service and it also shows your (COVID) vaccination status, sometimes called the COVID Pass. If you don’t yet have it, you can download it from the App Store or Google Play.
If your device supports fingerprint detection or facial recognition, you can use it to log in to the NHSApp each time, instead of using a password and security code.
Download the NHS app now on www.nhs.uk/nhs-app.
