WorldCard Contacts – THE Contact Organization and Business Card Management Tool! App Reviews

Easy to use and if you start asking people all the information it request. You will have a tool life

Great app!

I learned this the hard way -- there was a button that said create virtual address book. I didnt know what that did so, (since this is the way I tend to learn things) I clicked it. It created a little pretentd business card for every one of my 300 contacts, which I didnt want (only want to track business cards that I scan) -- So, since there was no undo button, I selected the cards and hit delete. BIG mistake. It went ahead and erased all 300 of my address book contacts! And since I sync with gmail, they proceeded to disappear from every device I own simultaneously, as well as from my gmail account. In a panic, I went to the apple store and they were able to get them back for me but holy cow did that scare me. (by the way if this ever happens to you, gmail has a "restore contacts" function for just this sort of disaster. Discovered that on my own after apple had me wipe the phone and restore to a previous sync. oh well.) So even though this was total user error and I admit it, I still give this app a 3 because they should at least warn you. Also I really dont like having it connected with my address book at all. These are business cards that I collect and dont want to waste the space to keep track of otherwise, theyre not that important. I want them to be separate from my other contacts.

This app is awesome. An order of magnitude better than Apples version. The only thing I would add is the ability for it to pick up as resent, calls made from apples app and all missed calls

Very nice, its the best option for business cards. Only one problem, the main need is to find a business card, however, the company name can not be viewed in full on your list due to the contacts name on the same viewing line. We need the company in full view in the list and the contact as a 2nd. For most sales persons, this is big. After all, the app is for company business cards that also has the contact info and not a contact list that also has the company. Over all its a very good app.

From the same developer I already have and enjoy world cards. World contact does not add any noteworthy value over that one or the built in iPhone contact app. Just made some things more complicated and slowed me down. Deleted it - and now Im left with changes to all my other contacts which got a string inserted in the notes. This is not clean and quality design and coding.

i love this app

I really had high hopes for this after reading about it and not being able to find Cardscan for iPhone app anywhere. So, I loaded WorldCard Contacts for $2.99 and WorldCard Mobile for free to try it out and planned to buy the paid version if it worked. I opened WorldCard contacts, clicked on the settings, then it froze in the settings. It wont respond to my touch on anything. I completely close the app and reopen it and its still stuck on the frozen page. My other complaint is that I loaded this thinking it was completely separate from my iphone contacts. I wanted business contacts to be in an app and my personal contacts to stay separate in my iphone contacts. As soon as I opened WorldCard Contacts, it showed all of my personal contacts in the app. The notice says "iPhone Contacts will be added a reference string in the "note field, please dont remove it (you can add your note after it). How about making this an option to accept or decline? I dont want you to add my iPhone contacts. Can I remove this without removing them from my phone? I cant seem to find that option. To give this a fair chance, I deleted WorldCard Contacts from my phone and then reinstalled it. This time it seems to be ok (i.e, not freezing up), but still not seeing any option to NOT import my iPhone contacts. Waste of $2.99 for me.

This is a shell on top of the iPhone Contacts. I wanted a contacts app separate from my iPhone, so I deleted the contacts that it automatically imported (without asking) and now ALL of my contacts are gone EVERYWHERE. Feels like a Trojan app!!!

Very useful !

Latest revision doesnt work. Would rate 4 star before this revision. Now it is useless

I just would like this ap to frame the business card correctly. Since it is a business card ap, youd think the frame size (when you go to take a picture of the card) would be the right size. Its not, so you get a lot of the background, which can be eliminated, making the card easier to read, but you have to edit (crop) each corner of each card individually. Other than that, the cards are readable, especially if you do go to the trouble of cropping each one. I dont have it paired with the "mobil" ap, and I still like this ap. Two other features that would immediately improve it would be including the flash on the iphone, and when the card has a back side, being able to flip it over (swiping on the iphone from top to bottom for instance) would be nice.

Dont know how I got along without it!

Easy to mamage my contacts.

It doesnt automatically upload the information off the business card.

This has been the best app for organizing my contacts! Easy and efficient!

First off the colors go great with it and the ability to keep countless cards on hand are excellent. Items that need an update are: *A way to integrate the voicemail function with the app rather than having to switch to the default phone app. *Optimize the photos that are used in the default contact app to this app and vise versa. The photos are always out of focus and have to be redone on this app. *A way to integrate the calls made from the default phone to show on this apps call log (may be excessive but it does help from switching back and forth). *Stop the function of reverting back to the default phone app once you complete a call using this app. *Another button that will allow facetime rather than using the default phone app to establish facetime. *Adding another note function to keep track of by date to help remember past conversation. This will help remember items discussed by date when calling. *Change the name on the app. Currently it says "World...tacts" something better to help promote the app. *Adding a function to the favorites to allow quick text, web page look up etc. for each individual contact rather than having to look up the favorite person again. *Adding a function when processing the card images to allow a sliding brightness bar. In some occasion when using the auto brightness it will white wash the card completely. *Adding a call log time and date for each individual phone call rather than showing the last call time and how many calls you made to that person. *Adding a missed call list, rather than checking the default phone app.

This app is indispensable. I use it to capture business cards in real time and connect to contacts in LinkedIn while still in the meeting!

Ive been looking for an Outlook replacement, a visual contact mgmt tool. I just came from an HTC Touchpad Pro and between its native contacts and Outlook they provided very intuitive way of dealing with a lot of contacts. This app has most of the good things I miss plus the business cards support (double-sided even), and some nice features for adjusting the cards; can have both a card and a picture or logo image. The sorting and display and display order is not as good as it should, like company name and contact name, and you cant specify a "file as" for your contact. One big pain is how after a call it ends up back in the native phone app instead of returning back to where you were in this app. This has caused me to accidentally dialed a wrong person from the Recents list because the 2 apps maintain separate lists of "Recents" and "Favorites". I love the visual favorites tiled with picture, name, and contact type. Overall, I gave 4 stars because of the few issues and annoyances. However, this is a great app that I have not found anywhere else in the app store, and for the price its even more a reason to have this.

After iPhone 5 came out the up dates on the 4, I can not put new contacts in this App needs a up date
