    Been searching all morning and this app is the best for card organization. Only had to make minor edits after transcription, most likely due to some of the cards being worn. I have the free app and it's awesome. I wouldn't hesitate to buy the pay app if I need to for any reason.

  • No more paper business cards!

    With this app, there is no need to carry stacks of paper business cards! Just one click and it captures all the information pretty accurately. Love it! Saves time to organize! No more bulging card holders! ***To developers: please make it so the info can be exported in excel format!!! If you do that, I'll pay for the app!

    The Lite version only allows you to export 1 recognized data per week. If you want to upload more, you have to buy the full version.

  • Finally something that works

    I thought it would be pretty simple to find an app that scans a business card and puts it into your contacts. After trying 4 others that dos a terrible job in reading the simplest of cards I finally found this one. It works!

  • limited by design

    Free - and useless too. No real opportunity to see if it is worth paying $7 for the real thing. One card per week for the free version (and that card didn't scan well).

  • Upgrade

    Definitely my favorite app, unfortunately it was the only app that didn't transfer data when my iOS updated! Any advice?

  • Excellent Card Recognition & Great Features

    I've tried some card readers in the past and have been disappointed in their performance. I stumbled upon this app and thought I would give it a try. I am VERY impressed with this app and it's performance. I've scanned five cards in with little problems, some of them made with very difficult fonts/colors. One was almost completely done with an italicized font in a small size. The app had a little problem with the "f"s that were designed to drop below the line like a "j", but the remainder was spot on. Another was a graphics heavy card on black, shiny background with terribly small font (even difficult for me to read). This program handled that spectacularly. It picked up all of the text and entered it correctly in the correct fields. That really surprised me given how difficult it was to read. Another was one that had been beaten up, with some random small marks over the person's title and web site address. With that damage, I was expecting a lot of gibberish in those fields. This card data was entered in perfectly except for those few obscured letters, which were simply removed & a space in their place. Convenient for me to fix it. When you take a photo, you have the option of using the flash and adjusting the exposure a bit. What I really like about this is the fact that it automatically scans the card and trims out the excess, then cleans up the image a bit. I hate doing all of that, it wastes my time. This app maintains a contact list, much like the installed phone app. However, it displays a small image of the card in the list for easy viewing. On the contact's page, you can snap a photo of the person to include in the information. You can sync these contacts up with your phone app, either individually as you enter a contact or globally via the settings. This app even grabs your various contact groups and allows you to set that data. If the app finds a duplicate entry (you've already entered the card or entered partial information in your phone app) it gives you the option to merge the new information into the old, which is a very nice feature to prevent duplicate entries. Since there is no option for a card image in the native phone app, the card image doesn't save there, making it unavailable to a more powerful contact manager app you may be using (like I am). WorldCard allows you to either save the card photos in the app or on the camera roll. Using the camera roll option allows me to import the card image into my CM app. I then delete it off the camera roll to save space. Head shots do export with the info and are viewed as usual in the native app & my CM app. I presume this will import contacts via a QR code. There is a button, but I didn't have one to test. I'm presuming the "Signature" option on the home screen allows you to take a photo of someone's signature to include in their file. I can't test that as I've reached my five card limit for the trial version and can now only do one card a week. I don't get cards very often, so purchasing the full version is not worth the money for me right now. I'll probably stick with this lite version and simply enter the remaining cards once a week. However, when I next go to a convention, I will definitely be buying the full version of this app. It's well worth the money for fast, accurate entry.

  • Good text recognition, but...

    The interface is dated. Worse, it doesn't save contacts directly to iPhone contacts. You have to opt in each time you scan a card. This app wants to build a contact book inside the app, which is worthless.

  • Works well, just a test run though...

    App works well at recognizing cards. Light version only allows five cards the first week and only one card every week after that. Clearly just a test-run version. Still, functionally it worked well and was easy to use.
