What This Cheat Does

The Max Health & Armor cheat does exactly what the name says — the moment you enter it, your health bar snaps back to full and you're handed a complete set of body armor. It's the single most useful survival cheat in GTA 5.

Use it mid-firefight to shrug off damage that would otherwise drop you, or fire it off right before a tough story mission so you start with the biggest possible buffer. The effect is instant — there's no toggle and nothing to switch back off afterwards.

How to Enter the Cheat

On PC

Type the code TURTLE during normal gameplay, or open the in-game phone and dial the number.

On Console

While walking around — not paused — press the button combo quickly and in order. A sound confirms the hit.

By Cell Phone

Bring up your character’s phone, open the keypad, enter 1-999-887-853 and press call.

Good to Know

The cheat tops you up once — it doesn't keep you healed. After you take damage again, just re-enter the code to refill.

Heads up: GTA 5 cheats only work in Story Mode — never in GTA Online. Entering any cheat disables Achievements / Trophies until you reload a save, and cheat effects don’t persist, so you may need to re-enter the code again later.
