Cardman

If you want to save any more than 10 business cards you have to pay $149. Not specified when downloading the app, you find out after you start downloading cards.

I know people complain about this app having difficulty scanning but I need it for different reasons. I have already digitized all of my cards and just need an app to save them all in and easily search them when I need them. This app allows me to pull from my photo library (as well as having the option to scan). I have only found a handful of apps that do this. The last one I used felt the need to “optimize” my cards without allowing me to choose and messed them completely up every single time. This app pulled mine in and actually read the data correctly most of the time. The only thing I had problems with was a few oddly shaped European business cards that were saved as .png for transparency (but I worked around that with a quick photoshop adjustment and now they display perfectly). The only things I don’t like are the facts that when I initially open the app, my cards don’t show. “All” should be a default view. And next, while iCloud is cool and all that, too many apps use it causing my space to fill up too quickly. So I would prefer to have a “backup and restore” function so I can save my data elsewhere when I need to. I also wouldn’t mind having a “sheet” display view under the “all” category to help me scroll through my voluminous bank of cards quickly by alphabet. The “list” display view is okay but I feel like I will be scrolling for awhile to get to what I’m searching for, wasting valuable time. And finally, where’s my “share” functionality? I want the ability to airdrop any one of my cards to someone else when needed. Fix that and I think this app would be everything!
