Who should I add?
The power of Number Buddy really kicks in with more than one contact. Although between you and me I've been with my partner almost 10 years and I still can't remember her number. It took me less than a day to remember 08001185999 🤭.
As to who to add, here's where I've landed for now:
My partner as she can reach out to many people if needed
My most reliable child (not going to reveal any more than that!) in case my partner and I are stuck somewhere together
A couple of my closest friends who would always come to my rescue
One of my closest work buddies in case I need to get a message to work
Generally speaking it'll be a combination of these:
Family
Close friends
Work contacts
Healthcare providers
Local services
Local emergency contacts
Utility companies
Insurance agents
Roadside assistance
Your mileage will vary and you can change your stored five buddies any time you like.
Out for the evening? Add your babysitter's number
Away on a trip? Switch out a buddy or two for those travelling companions
Landing a big client? Add their number temporarily.
