Frequently Asked Questions
What format does this generate?
A standard vCard 3.0 file (RFC 2426) — the same format used when you export a contact from Google Contacts, Outlook, or your phone's native Contacts app. It includes name, organization, title, phone, email, website, and address fields.
Why is there a QR code, not just a downloadable file?
Most phone cameras (iOS and Android) automatically recognize vCard-formatted text inside a QR code and offer to "Add Contact" directly when scanned — no file transfer, email, or app needed, which makes it convenient for sharing contact info at events or on business cards/signage.
Can I still download the .vcf file instead of scanning?
Yes — the Download button saves a standalone .vcf file you can email, AirDrop, or import directly into any contacts app that supports vCard import.
Are special characters in my name or address escaped correctly?
Yes — characters with special meaning in the vCard format (commas, semicolons, backslashes, newlines) are escaped per the vCard spec so multi-part fields like the address don't get corrupted by unescaped delimiter characters.
Is any of this data sent to a server?
No — the vCard text and QR code are both generated entirely in your browser. Nothing you type is transmitted anywhere.
