Online Services and the NHS App

The new, simple and secure way to access a range of NHS services on your smartphone or tablet.

What can the NHS app do?

Use the NHS App to:

• access and share your Covid-19 vaccination status
• view your GP medical record securely
• order repeat prescriptions
• check your symptoms
• find out what to do when you need help urgently
• book and manage appointments at your GP surgery
• register to be an organ donor
• choose how the NHS uses your data

Keeping your data secure

After you download 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.

If your device supports fingerprint detection or facial recognition, you can use it to log in to the NHS App each time, instead of using a password and security code.

Get help with the app

If you have any issues using or downloading the app, check the NHS App help and support page.

How to find your NHS Number

You need your NHS number to access the NHS App and other key services. This number is unique to you, so please keep it safe 🔒.
