This life saving feature is truly amazing: Android N developer preview

If you are in an emergency situation (medical emergency), think of the situation where your phone would be your life saver. Seems like a dream right?Nope. Android N has a new feature added into it that would do so.
In the Android N developer preview, Google has added an option to include medical details and personal contact information (also your medical emergency contact). When you guys setup a new phone on N developer preview, you would be asked to add these information (although this is optional). You can add your name, birth date, address and medical info like blood group, medications, allergies and a contact which comes in handy in such emergencies. This way the responders can use the emergency button on your phone (locked phone). 
If you have not done it in the beginning, you can find it in settings > User at any time in the future. This feature is surely a welcoming feature in Android N. Hope that Google would bring this feature to the consumer version.
