Save Contact / vCard

An action that adds the card owner's details straight to the phone's contacts, using the standard vCard file format.


vCard is a standard file format (.vcf) for storing contact details: name, phone, email, company, address, and links. When a user taps the save-contact button on a digital business card, the phone receives a vCard file and offers to add the details to contacts.

The benefit is removing friction: no manual typing, which means the contact is far more likely to actually get saved after the meeting.
