## What is My Card Folio?

My Card Folio turns the stack of business cards on your desk into something you can search. Pay once. Keep it forever.

No subscription. No auto-renewal. No service that can be shut down on you.


■ Buy it once, and it's yours

One payment, permanent. It follows you to a new phone.

We run no servers — which means there is no "rising operating costs" story that could bring a monthly fee back later. That isn't a promise. It's an architectural fact.


■ Your data lives in your iCloud

Cards and photos are stored in your own iCloud Drive, not in our database.

Open the Files app on your iPhone and you'll see them: one folder per card, containing a readable card.json and the photo. Even if you stop using this app, those files stay open, readable, and yours.


■ Recognition runs on your phone

Text recognition is entirely offline. Card contents never leave your device. No account, no network required.

Recognizes cards in Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, English, and Japanese.


■ Search finds anything on the card

Not just names and companies. Taglines, brand names, full department titles — if it's printed on the card, you can find it. Results are instant across thousands of cards.


■ Fix what recognition got wrong

Tap text on the photo to assign it to a field, or just type. The app flags what looks questionable instead of leaving you to discover it later.


■ Move in from another card app

Import vCard files — the format most card apps and address books export. Names, companies, phone numbers, and email come across intact.


The free version holds 30 cards with nothing held back: scanning, recognition, editing, and export are all fully available. Decide with the real thing, not a countdown timer.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.3.0 — 2026-08-25

• Grouped browsing: a new folder button at the top of the list lets you browse cards by Company, Region or Tag, like folders. Company and Region are derived automatically from the cards themselves ("Acme Tech" and "Acme Tech Co., Ltd." count as one company), and groups update whenever a card changes.
• Tags are easier to reach: the tags row on a card is now always visible and editable with one tap — no need to open the correction screen. Long-press a card in the list to edit its tags directly.
• Tag a whole group: long-press any group (or use the tag button inside a group) to add the same tag to every card in it — industry, client tier, trade show, however you like to organize.
• Fill in from same company: new in Settings → Data Maintenance. Cards from the same company are compared with each other; missing addresses, phones, faxes, websites, tax IDs and English company names are suggested from the cards that have them, and likely OCR typos are flagged. Personal fields — name, mobile, email — are never copied between people; phone numbers are only added, never changed. As always, everything is listed first and nothing is written until you confirm; fields you edited yourself are never touched.

### 1.2.0 — 2026-08-24

• Fixed garbled contact export: vCards exported from the app came out as mojibake when imported into the iPhone Contacts app, phone numbers gained a stray "tel:" prefix, and Chinese job titles were overwritten by their English versions. Switching to the more widely supported vCard 3.0 fixes all of it, and also helps Google Contacts, Outlook and Android.
• Data maintenance: Settings now has "Tidy Phone Number Formats" and "Re-evaluate Card Fields". Recognition rules keep improving, and now your existing cards can catch up — both tools list what would change first and write nothing until you confirm. Fields you edited yourself are never touched.
• Consistent phone formats: domestic numbers use the local style; Taiwan, China, Japan, Korea and North America each follow their own convention, and foreign numbers keep their country code. Extensions written after "," or ",," are split out automatically.
• Assign a line as "Mobile" or "Fax" directly; assigned numbers are formatted to match.
• Company names split across two lines are joined back together (e.g. "… Sports" + "Technology Ltd."), in both Chinese and English.
• Social accounts: a new field for LINE, WeChat and other accounts that you can edit and fill in yourself.
• Recognition fix: a name printed on the same line as a mobile number is no longer dropped.
• Capture: choose manual or auto shutter as the default in Settings (manual by default). Auto capture shows a countdown ring, taps once when locked, no longer fires too early when you flip to the back, and retakes blurry shots automatically.
• Reverse sort order: newest or oldest first for dates, A→Z or Z→A for names.

### 1.1.0 — 2026-08-24

• Card backs: capture the back of a card right after the front, or add it later to cards you already have. Both sides are read together, and English names and company names from the back fill in the English fields — your existing entries are never overwritten.
• Tags: group cards with your own labels (Client, Call back, that trade show). Tags you have used before are one tap away next time, and they are searchable.
• Wider device support: the minimum requirement is now iOS 18, down from iOS 26.
• Recognition and stability fixes: names containing Chinese numerals are now recognised correctly, phone extensions and email formats are handled more accurately, and a new "Check suspicious fields" screen helps you find cards that may have been misread.

### 1.0.3 — 2026-08-17

Fixed several places where Japanese, Korean, English, and Simplified Chinese still showed Traditional Chinese text — phone type labels, the purchase page description, and field names when editing a card.

### 1.0.2 — 2026-08-15

No release notes.
