HOW SURE ARE WE
Small app: combines its grossing ranks with ratings growth (203 new ratings a month on average since launch). Tested on 418 apps with verified revenue: typically off by about 2.6 times, so the range is wide. Countries we don't track (and Google Play in China, which doesn't exist) aren't included, and neither are ads or web payments. Gross revenue before store fees.

Unglaublich schlechte App

Ich hab ja schon wirklich endlos viele Apps gekauft, aber die gehört ganz sicher zu den schlechtesten, die ich bisher hatte. Visitenkarten werden extrem schlecht ausgelesen. So schlecht, dass man die Eintragungen im eigenen Telefonbuch am besten gleich verhandelt, erledigt. Es ist wirklich ein Witz dafür, Geld zu verlangen. Wenn ich könnte, würde ich diese sofort umtauschen. Ich war schon skeptisch, warum man sich nicht probehalber ausprobieren konnte.

★★★★★May 28, 2025
Sweet!

How cool is this! Get a lot of business cards this one is for you!

★★★★★Jan 9, 2025
Ehhhh

App scans and adds contact information to your phone, but it does not capture the text correctly, you need to check on all the information and 10 out of 10 times you need to make corrections.

It has gotten worse over the years

I have been using smart card for a long time and now it is forcing me to pay for it. Not only that but it wastes my time.

★★★★★May 3, 2024
Übertragung von Daten

Ich möchte vom alten IPhone meine Daten auf das neue IPhone von SamCard übertragen. Aber alle Übertragungswege scheitern… Was ist zu tun ?

★★★★★Dec 8, 2023
Sehr nützlich - aaaber...

...man muss sehr oft und auch viel nachbessern - grad bei den Nummern ist die Fehlerquote hoch. Das hindert mich leider auch noch am Kauf der PRO-Ausführung.
