The Contacts tab keeps the people you add, scan, or receive through your digital business card in one place.
A contact appears in Tapify when:
- You add it manually.
- You scan a paper business card, event badge, or QR code.
- Someone selects Exchange details on your digital business card and submits their information.
See Share your digital business card for how exchanging details works.
- Open Contacts.
- Tap +.
- Select Add Contact.
- Add the details you have.
- Tap Save.
A name is the most useful starting point. You can also add a job title, company, mobile number, phone number, email address, website, LinkedIn profile, and address.
To capture an existing card or badge instead, choose Scan Contact.
Use search at the top of Contacts. Tapify can match details such as the person’s name, company, job title, email address, or note.
On iPhone, you can also select the filter button and choose one or more tags. Clear the selected tags to show all contacts again.
Select a contact to see their saved details. When the required information is available, you can:
- Call them
- Send a message
- Send an email
- Open their website or LinkedIn profile
- Open their address in Maps
The contact also shows how it was added and when it was created. A message submitted through your digital business card appears separately from your private note.
- Open the contact.
- Tap the More button.
- Select Edit contact.
- Correct or add information.
- Save your changes.
If phone contact sync is enabled, Tapify also updates the matching contact on your phone.
- Open the contact.
- Tap the More button.
- Select Delete contact.
- Confirm the deletion.
On iPhone, you can also swipe a contact in the list and choose Delete.
Deleting a contact from Tapify cannot be undone. If the contact was synced to your phone, the copy in your phone’s Contacts app is not deleted automatically.
When you are offline
Tapify can show contacts that were previously saved on the device. A message explains when the app is showing a saved copy because it cannot refresh. Connect to the internet before making important changes or loading contacts for the first time.
See Tags and notes for ways to add context to a contact.
