HOW TO GET GOOD RECOGNITION RESULTS

1. Place the business card on a flat surface.
2. Good lighting is key: bright desk lamp or direct sunlight are necessary.
3. Hold the device right above the card. Keep the card aligned with BCR viewfinder edges and adjust iPhone/iPad positioning so that the card fits the screen size.
4. Tap the screen to take the picture.
5. After the recognition is done, you can check the results.
6. Tap Save to add the contact into your iOS address book.

Reviews

Great app
Illini fan1989

It uploads business cards - don't know about the frills but the app accurately imports info from business card


Poor text recognition
Cbjohnson2

Consistently mistakens 6 for 0. Also does not export to Evernote in the ‘business card’ format native to Evernote. Instead it just creates a regular not. Not a big deal, but kind of annoying


Great App
Tfurhunt

One of only a few apps I Use on A daily basis. Not perfect but very very good.


Great at first now worthless
Sal’s Account

This app worked great for about 30 days. Now I take picture of business card and letters making no sense show up filling up the fields with worthless info. Get it and input all your info immediately otherwise it will be worthless in about a month.


They Broke A Great App
Cussfan Skifast

DO NOT BUY! Terrible support, I have used this program for a few years now and have been happy until recently. The app not longer works, after the unread release. You can not save the record. It also does not up load to the cloud either. Have contacted support and had very slow and poor response. Do not buy this until they fix it. I have reached out to their support many times over the last few months and they refuse to even answer.DO NOT BUY!
