Cardhop Reviews

Useful, but some bizarre/annoying design choices

dfabs

This is a pretty useful app, it works well to add a new contact with some pasted information since you can just add everything inline and Cardhop parses our the details. One thing I hate: I have birthday notifications on, it shows a tiny photo of the contact, a Haptic Touch or 3D Press expands the card but removes the contact photo entirely and replaces it with an animated cake. I don’t need to see (the same) animated cake (every day), I know it’s that person’s birthday. I *would* however like to see a larger version of that person’s contact photo. It’s emblematic of how this developer’s version of “pretty” animations overtakes functionality, and they appear (based on an email exchange) to be set in stone about the 3D Touch birthday animation. The word that most describes this developer is stubborn, and unwilling to consider how their software is actually used. It’s a shame, because there’s much more potential for this app imo, but they’re holding it back by sticking with how it functioned in the 1.0 release.

Uninstalling and boycotting Flexibits

I loved Flexibits, now they want too much. Analog to the rescue. :)

When’s the subscription to access my contacts coming?

At least it will have the weather and a sloppy UI though...

Disappointing!!!

CardHop usage for me began in September 2019 on my iPhone XS Max. Started off solid, strong and reliable becoming my go to. Now It’s begun crashing and giving error message you do not have any contacts and then contacts disappear and reappear. Can any developer in 2020 code a reliable, business class ready app for iPhone these days??? I’m waiting...

Making a Call Takes 3 Clicks vs 1 for Apple App

Feashman

Nice app for sorting and entering contact data, but it takes three clicks to initiate a phone call vs just one in the Apple iOS contacts app. If this is fixed would add two more stars.

Terrific

Love the app. Clean, easy to use, and I particularly appreciate how easy it is to see what account a contact is out of. Absolutely worth the investment.

Amazing

Induvidual

Entering contacts has never been easier! An amazing replacement for the stock contacts app. Note to the devs: PLEASE do not move this app to a subscription model like Fantastical.

Moving to a forty dollar subscription soon?

RyuWorks

Probably best not to pay for this app in case they switch it to a very pricey subscription model in the coming months like they have done to fantastical.

Ugly logo

ANApple1

Logo is really ugly, in contrast to fantastical’s logo that is great. Please change? App is good. $5 is ok, $19.99 for the Mac App is way too much.

Save to more than just the default account!

I haven’t used the app much yet but I’m very excited to finally have an iOS contacts app that can save to an account other than the default. 4 stars because, same at the Mac app, parsing can make a mess and it rarely accurate. It always wants to update an existing contact instead of creating new And makes a mess of that screen so you can’t really tell what’s even going on. If fields are auto filled you can’t see the name of the field to tell whether it’s correct. No advanced parsing such as being able to say Company Name:XYZ First Name:Bruce. I’d really like to see that in the Mac app even more than here.
