You will only see the Emergency Contacts button if you use a Pattern, PIN, or Password lock on your phone. It doesn't show on the the normal lock screen.

It's been so long since I have *not* locked my phone that I keep forgetting there is an option not to - or that people don't ;) ... Thanks for the clarification ...

I've discovered if I have an alarm enabled the contact info doesn't appear on my lockscreen. As soon as I disable the active alarm, the info shows up. So the active alarm must be overriding the ability for Contact Owner to display on the lockscreen. I emailed the developer about this but never got a response.

Thanks for that! I just tried turning off my alarms and that did it. I had completely given up on getting this to work. I think I'll wait for a fix before I start using it, since I rely on my alarms. But it's nice to finally know why it wouldn't work for me.
