## What is Heart Restarted?

Heart Restarted is practical help for the weeks and years after you come home from a cardiac arrest or ECMO, built by a survivor who has been there. Use the tools from day one, keep using them as the months turn into years, and meet people who understand when you are ready.

YOUR DAY
• A calm daily check-in on a Today screen that puts what matters to you first
• Your plan, one small step at a time, for survivors and for caregivers
• Breathing exercises for anxious moments
• A personal safety plan you can keep close

YOUR CARE
• Questions to ask at your first cardiology visit, ready to tick and print
• Your own list of questions for every appointment after that
• An emergency wallet card with your emergency contact
• A restart day card to mark the day your heart started again, every year

TOOLS FOR THE ROAD AHEAD
• Is this normal? Plain answers to common questions, with named sources
• When to call: a card that works offline
• Is it happening again? A plan to follow
• Back-to-life guides for driving, work, exercise, travel, intimacy and talking with your kids
• Medical ID: a guide to setting up the lock-screen Medical ID on your phone
• Pay it forward: find CPR classes and write a thank-you letter to your rescuer
• How you can help: a card to share with family
• A letter to your future self
Everything you write in these tools stays on your phone. Links to outside sources open inside the app.

FOR FAMILIES AND CAREGIVERS
• A family link that shares only what you choose, instead of the same phone call ten times
• Resources and self-care for the people doing the supporting

PEOPLE WHO GET IT, WHEN YOU ARE READY
• Read stories from fellow survivors, and share yours, anonymously if you prefer
• Wellness buddies: connect one to one with someone on a similar road
• Messages, events and circles
• A creative space for writing and art
• In time, help the next person who is where you were

SAFE AND PRIVATE
• If a post mentions a crisis, 988 and 911 help shows right away
• Posts are moderated, with crisis support built in
• Sign in with Apple, Google, or a link sent to your email
• No ads, and we never sell your data

Recovery is not a straight line, and it does not end when the follow-ups slow down. Heart Restarted is built to stay useful in year one, year two and beyond.

Heart Restarted is not a medical device and does not give medical advice. Always follow your care team's guidance. If you are in crisis, call or text 988 in the US, or call your local emergency number.
