Saving a vCard file directly into your mobile without a notification

Saving a .vcf file directly into your mobile upon tapping an NFC or scanning a QR code without a notification can be smooth, but tricky.

This approach has a couple of significant issues.

Here are the main problems:

• Privacy Invasion: Automatically saving a contact without a notification can be seen as intrusive. Users might not appreciate having contact details added to their phone without their explicit consent. This could also lead to unwanted contacts being saved.
• Security Risks: Without a notification, users are unaware of the contact details being added, which could potentially include malicious or phishing contacts. It opens up a vulnerability where bad actors could exploit the feature to insert harmful contacts into someone's phone.
• Accidental Saves: It increases the risk of accidental saves. A user's phone could unintentionally tap an NFC tag or scan a QR code, leading to unintended contacts being saved.
• Lack of Control: Users lose control over what gets added to their phone. Notifications serve as a checkpoint, allowing users to decide whether they want to save the contact information or not.
• User Experience: The lack of a notification can be jarring and may degrade the user experience. People generally prefer to be informed about changes being made to their device, especially when it involves personal data.

With VCARD SCAN, user privacy is a priority. We ensure that .vcf files are not saved directly to your mobile upon tapping an NFC or scanning a QR code without providing a notification first. This way, you stay in control of your contacts.

VCARD SCAN doesn't retrieve contact numbers automatically. Instead, it respects user privacy by ensuring any contact information exchange requires explicit action and consent. This approach keeps you in control and maintains a secure, user-friendly experience.
