Premium

Log in and Access Contacts

To use the business card scanner, first log in to your oneVcard Account. You can do this either through the app on your smartphone or via the web browser on your computer. After logging in, you’ll land on the dashboard. To scan a new business card, navigate to the “Contacts” section.

Activate the Scanner

In the Contacts section, you have two options to activate the scanner. You can click the scanner icon at the bottom right or select the plus sign at the top of the menu. Both methods will open your device’s camera to start the scanning process.

Scan and Save the Business Card

Once the scanner is activated, you can take a photo of the physical business card. The scanner analyzes the card and automatically extracts all relevant information such as name, company, phone number, email address, and more. These details will then be stored in your oneVcard contact book.

The AI-powered OCR technology ensures that even complex layouts and fonts are recognized and digitized accurately. This means you don’t have to manually input the captured information – the scanner does it for you, saving you a lot of time.
