It’s Good but Could be Better

I purchased this scanner over the other 10 I tried because of the .csv export file is the one that works best for my needs, but boy, the scanner needs major improvement. I have to correct every single card I scan in one way or another. It constantly puts the business name everywhere but in the business name field. It will put descriptions or other information written on business cards as one long text thread in the address field or job field. It puts square business card rotated right instead of the way I scanned them in and the photo editor doesn’t fix it. I can rotate the image in the editor but the edit will never save. I like that I can have my own fields that I create, because I need Facebook and Instagram fields but I’m surprised that they don’t automatically have these fields for the scanner to read, so I have to manually input that information every time. There is a LinkedIn field, so why not other social media fields that people actually use? If the scanner function actually worked the way it is supposed to and read in and inputted the correct information in the correct spot, I would be able to scan 10x as fast. This is why it only gets 3 stars.

Used to be good. Terrible now

When I firsts bought this about five years ago, it worked super well. For the last couple of years it’s been next to useless. In my old iPhone 12 and now in my fully up to date 17 pro. At the moment, I’m logged in and online, but it tells me I need to log in to save my cards (that’s already done). It also says I’m offline when I’m online. It’s basically unusable.

Not Satisfied

It need very strong network, only WiFi it works. Not even in 5G. It becomes very difficult to use it when required to scan

Response from developer

Thanks for flagging this! We've recently built offline scanning for exactly this case, so cards scan with no connection and process automatically once signal returns. Give it another try, and if you run into any trouble, reach out to support@covve.com and we'll help you out.

Clunky login and sync

I can’t log in on two devices. I also have had my saved cards disappear several times.

Great software and excellent

Response from developer

Thanks for the kind words, glad it's working well for you.

Phenomenal app, pay wall

This is a very well made app, but there is an immediate pay wall, so that’s not cool. Seems like a great resource if you’re willing to pay though!

was great until last update

Last update broke zapier integration. 70 salesmen unable to scan cards.
Not having a great day here.

Great App!

Great!

Not accurate

The first two business cards I scanned were wrong on most files

Anfangs gut, seit letztem Update schlecht

Seit dem letzten Update, erkennt die App fast nichts mehr richtig, sie erkennt was, aber hat meist einen Zahlendreher in Handynummern oder eine falsche Mail. Die Überprüfung dauert daher genau so lange, wie als würde mans selbst einspeichern. Vorher hat es gut funktioniert, leider jetzt nicht mehr.

Response from developer

Hallo Hoizscheidl, es tut mir leid, das zu hören. Seltsam ist, dass es keine Änderung an der Scan-Engine gegeben hat. Ich würde Ihnen empfehlen, die Kameraeinstellungen Ihres Smartphones zu überprüfen, falls dort etwas nicht richtig eingestellt ist. Abgesehen davon bietet Covve weiterhin den genauesten Scanner auf dem Markt. Schreiben Sie uns gerne auch an support@covve.com, dann helfen wir Ihnen bei der Fehlersuche und sorgen dafür, dass alles wieder funktioniert! Alles Gute, Alex (Mitgründer)

Still Buggy and crashes

When I try to reopen the app the app does seems to start with a first press it need 4-5 attempts for it to start and some time the camera does not turn on I guess you need to make some critical improvements as I love the app when it’s function normally.. while exporting to excel how do i get the image file exported it seems no option. Please help

Will revise my rating once the bug is solved

Mind Boggling

Superb

Response from developer

Thank you, means a lot.

Brilliant overall

Super high accuracy and excellent design, very iser friendly. Its so much more than a scanner, even gives you research on the people you meet. Syncs with contacts and there are export options too

Σύνδεση με outlook

Θα ήθελα να μπορεί να συνδεθεί με τις επαφές στο outlook

Super schnell, gute Recherche

Bin höchst zufrieden

Response from developer

Freut uns sehr, vielen Dank.

Requires account now?

Newest update prevents any scans without creating an account and verifying email.

No. Recent changes to app have been focused on loss of user privacy.

Lost cards when switching phones

Payed for lifetime membership but changed phones and now receiving a message that server cannot be found when logging in with email.

Response from developer

Hi there, sorry to hear this. The most likely cause is that you're trying to log in with the wrong account. You may have signed in with apple or google login (not email) or with a different email. Do reach out to us at support@covve.com and we'll help out!

Worth it

Oh this is maybe not have an “excel” type exportable database I’m not sure, but it is nice that even when the app isn’t downloaded it saved my scanned contacts seemlessly.

Nicht wirklich barrierefrei

Im Flow fehlt eine Nutzung per VoiceOver. Viele Tasten sind nur als Anführungszeichen“ Taste“ gekennzeichnet. Dabei wäre es schön, wenn man wüsste, was diese Taste bewirkt. Gerade für blinde Menschen wäre das sammeln von Adressen mit dieser App sinnvoll und zielführend. Sobald die App von Linden Menschen 100-prozentig genutzt werden kann, gibt es auch mindestens vier Sterne.

Doesn’t working at all

Rubbish
