Fast but somewhat ineffective – i-nigma QR Code, Data Matrix and 1D barcode reader Review

I was excited to try out a QR code I made containing a vCard of my contact info when someone with an iPhone asked for my phone number the other day. I had previously partially tested this functionality and was pleased that after scanning, I-nigma would display my contact info. However, after a full test, we discovered that it did not add that info to my friend's address book after clicking import. She'd already had an entry for me. My phone number was not added there, nor was it added as a new contact. Later at home, I tested this with 2 test QR codes - one with my name that added a new phone number and one with a test name. The test name vCard got added to my address book just fine, but the new number with my name was not added to my address book anywhere. So I tried another reader called qrafter and upon scanning the code, it brought up the info in address book and gave me the option to select a new or existing contact - a much better way of doing it in my opinion. Plus, it was just as fast. However I will acknowledge that I-nigma does better than other apps at scanning qr codes that have vcards encoded. 2 other readers I've tried, such as scanlife, give me a nonsensical error about not being connected to the internet when I scan a qr code with vCard info encoded.
