CardDrop is built for people who collect business cards at events — realtors, sales professionals, and anyone who networks in person. Instead of downloading an app, you just text a photo of the card to (209) 299-0966 and it's saved to your contacts automatically. You can search your contacts, set follow-up reminders, and export everything — all through text messages.
Cardhop by Flexibits is a contacts management app for macOS and iOS. It replaces Apple's built-in Contacts app with a more powerful interface that supports natural language input and smart groups. It's designed for Apple users who want a better way to manage their existing contacts on their devices.
