## What is Meishitto?

Just snap the card. The contact stays yours.

Meishitto isn't "scan and lock in": every contact you capture flows to your phone's address book, your photo library and your Google Drive.

■ Shoot it, and everything else is handled
The moment a card is saved it is written out to your contacts, your photo library and your cloud backup. Three switches to set up, then nothing left to do by hand.

■ Edge detection with automatic shutter
Point the camera at a card. The edges are detected and the shutter fires as soon as the frame is steady.
· Burst mode captures a whole stack at once
· Front and back are merged into a single card
· Import from your photo library or a PDF

■ On-device scanning is free, forever, unlimited
Text recognition runs on the device itself (Apple Vision). No network, no paywall, no per-scan cost.

■ AI refines the cards that are hard to read
While your monthly AI allowance lasts, refinement runs automatically. When the allowance runs out it simply falls back to manual. Nothing is ever charged without you choosing it.

■ Multilingual cards, as they are
Recognition covers Japanese, Chinese (Simplified and Traditional), Korean and English, plus German, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Indonesian and Vietnamese — and Thai on iOS. The interface ships in 12 languages.

■ Tells you when you've already scanned someone
If an email or phone number matches a card you already hold, you're told before any AI is spent. No duplicate entries. When you scan someone you already have, you can merge into the existing card — tags, notes and the last-contacted date stay put, and your phone's contacts don't end up with the same person twice.

■ Share your own card by QR
Show your own card as a QR code; the person in front of you just scans it. You choose field by field what is public.

■ Fast with thousands of cards
Sort by date or by name (reading-aware) and search instantly, however large your collection grows.

■ Your data, your ownership
· Contacts → written to your phone's address book. Write-only by default; read access is requested only if you turn on two-way sync, and only to merge and remove entries
· Card images → your photo library and your Google Drive (files this app created only / drive.file)
· Full vCard (.vcf) export
Card contents reach our servers only when you authorise it (cloud sync / AI connection — off by default, revocable anytime). During AI refinement they only pass through. The one thing we keep is a badly-read scan you choose to donate: held 30 days to improve recognition, with no record of who sent it.

■ Connect the AI you already use (Plus / Pro)
Ask Claude or another AI to search your cards and read the details back. It can propose corrections, tags and removing a duplicate — proposing is where it stops, because your cards live on your phone. You choose: approve each proposal, or let a kind of change apply automatically (deletions have their own switch, off by default).

■ Two-way sync with your contacts (optional, off by default)
Turn it on and a card merges into the contact you already have when the email or phone matches, so the same person never appears twice. Delete a card and the contact it created goes too. Matching happens on your device; nothing read is sent to our servers.

■ Pricing

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.6.1 — 2026-08-15

• Fixed the Google authorization dialog appearing after every scan. Drive errors such as "out of storage" were misread as "authorization expired", so a perfectly valid authorization kept getting cleared.
• Long-press in your card box to select several cards and delete them together. After you change a filter, "Select all" only picks cards that are actually on screen.
• Tag a card right after you save it — pick an existing tag, or type a new one and it is created on the spot.
• Fixed Chinese addresses where a floor number could be misread.

### 1.6.0 — 2026-08-13

・You can now add fields by hand on the card detail screen — useful when something printed on the card was not picked up by the scan.
・Fields you add can carry your own label (for example "Direct" or "Ext").
・Fixed: fields you added yourself disappeared when a vCard you exported was imported back.
・After changing accounts, restoring a purchase used to fail with a generic error. You now get a dialog asking whether to move the subscription to this account — and it states that the previous account loses its paid features.
・When you merge a two-sided card with a different language on each side, both languages are now kept. Fields written in the other language are labelled as such. The merge confirmation screen and a problem where you could not go back after merging are fixed too.

### 1.5.1 — 2026-08-11

・Fixed: on a card printed in two languages, photographing the front and back separately and then merging could drop one of the languages.
・Fixed: on Thai cards, the Latin transliteration on the back was lost when the two sides were merged.
・Fixed: the company name could appear on two lines on the free plan.
・Updated the offline copy of the in-app help.

### 1.5.0 — 2026-08-08

- Put your own card's QR on your home screen and Lock Screen widgets.
- Add your card to Apple Wallet.
- Connect the AI you already use (Plus / Pro). Edits, tags and deletions it suggests apply only when you approve them — or automatically, if you turn that on.
- Two-way sync with your phone's contacts (off by default; it only reads when you turn it on).
- Deleting a card now removes it from your device, your contacts and our backup together.
- AI can draft a short follow-up note for you.
- Share a card as plain text from its detail screen.
- Help and FAQ now live inside the app.
- A new first-steps guide.
- Recognition fixes across 12 languages (two phone numbers on one line, addresses vanishing, departments not picked up).
- Removed the call button on FAX rows — it was dialling fax machines at your expense.
- Fixed "permission expired" on cloud backup.
- Fixed clipped layouts in longer languages such as German.

### 1.3.4 — 2026-08-04

No release notes.
