Über dieses Tool

A vCard (.vcf) is the universal format for contact cards. Generate one in seconds and email it, drop it on a website, or scan it from a QR code - recipients can import it into iPhone Contacts, Android, Gmail, Outlook, or any major address book in one tap. No more dictating your name, title and phone number for someone to type into their phone at the end of a meeting.

The file is built in your browser using vCard 3.0, the most widely supported version of the format. Special characters in names, addresses and notes are escaped automatically, so unusual characters - accents, semicolons, line breaks in addresses - survive the import without garbling the result.

Useful in email signatures (attach a .vcf alongside the link), at conferences (print a QR with the file embedded), on a personal landing page, or inside a company directory you control. Because nothing leaves your browser, you can build cards for clients or employees without exposing their details to a third-party service.

Häufig gestellte Fragen

Why vCard 3.0 and not 4.0?

Version 3.0 has the broadest compatibility across mail clients and phones. 4.0 is newer and better structured, but not every app parses every 4.0 field correctly, so 3.0 is still the safer default for files you're sending to people whose setup you don't know.

Can I add a photo?

Not yet. This generator focuses on the text fields that work everywhere. Photos require base64 embedding which inflates the file size and breaks in a handful of older clients.

Will the recipient's contact app import it cleanly?

Yes for any current version of iOS, Android, Gmail, Outlook and Apple Contacts. Older versions may ignore some fields - usually URL or notes - but the core name and contact details always come through.

How do I share a vCard via QR code?

Generate the .vcf here, then open the QR tool and paste the vCard text into the text or vCard tab. Scanning the QR will offer to add the contact directly.
