Customer Reviews
Very Useful !
Recently changed jobs and had a very large stack of business cards from new contacts.
Was dreading the manual entry into Exchange and iPhone but now it is so easy to upload business cards into my contact.
One click photo and your off and running.
Very accurate. Had trouble with foreign cards, app crashed a few times on those.
Great app and great time saver.
Easy to Use and Accurate!
If you are like me and just can't be bothered to type in every piece of information from a business card then this app is for you! It took about 1 minute to take a picture of the business card and import the information into my contacts.
I am going to go through many of my old business cards that have been sitting around so I can ensure that I have all of my information digitally saved.
Cool!
Love it!
