### 5/5 — Super

*2026-07-16*

Bin sehr begeistert und auch die Möglichkeiten…

### 1/5 — Für Visitenkarten nicht zu gebrauchen

*2024-09-07*

Es kann aus Kontakte (IOS) gerade mal 5 Zeilen importieren und das nicht mal komplett… restliche Daten geht nicht. Eine Datei als VCF speichern und weiterleiten geht auch nicht … versprechen mehr als sie leisten … Schade um die 7 €

**Developer response:** Hallo, danke für die ehrliche Rückmeldung. Mit der aktuellen Version können die Kontaktdaten übernommen werden. Einlesen und beschreiben ist somit in großem Umfang möglich.

### 1/5 — 👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼

*2023-04-13*

Not good

### 1/5 — Erkennt Mifare Chip nicht

*2022-10-12*

Also mit dem IPhone 11 kann man den Mifare Tag nicht scannen. Über Kurzbefehle erkennt das IPhone den Chip allerdings. Kann ihn darüber nur nicht beschreiben und bräuchte dafür eine App.

**Developer response:** Hi, danke für die Rückmeldung. Kannst du dich bitte unter support@tobiashauss.de melden? Dann können wir mal schauen was da los ist. Danke ☺️

### 5/5 — tolle app die einfach tut was sie soll

*2022-10-11*

die app ist modern designed, sie ist klar und übersichtlich strukturiert und tut was sie soll und dass auch noch problemlos - sie ist jeden cent wert
großes lob an den entwickler tobias hauß, der auch schon andere tolle apps entwickelt hat.

**Developer response:** Vielen Dank 😊

### 5/5 — Dankeschön!

*2021-04-28*

Dankeschön für die Arbeit die Ihr damit hattet.

**Developer response:** 😊🙏🏻

### 5/5 — Super App - nur zu empfehlen

*2021-03-24*

Übersichtlicher Aufbau und klasse Support

**Developer response:** 😊🙏🏻

### 5/5 — It works. Just wish it could have another feature.

*2021-02-02*

Wish that they could make it so when you are trying to open a siri shortcut it worth should the notification for you to click. It would be better if they could make it so it could automatically run the shortcut.

**Developer response:** Thanks for your Feedback.

There is an Option to Startup automatically when you tap on the entry. But you still have to tap on it.

Thanks for the Input, i will think about it 😊

### 5/5 — Einfach und schnell

*2021-02-01*

Die App ist wirklich praktisch um schnell und einfach Tags zu lesen, zu beschreiben oder zu löschen. Einfach top. 
Aber Achtung: Die Tags der Firma LinkDesk lassen sich damit nicht beschreiben. Diese Tags sind herstellerseitig gesperrt. Diese kann auch keine andere App verändern.

### 5/5 — Einfache Bedienung

*2021-01-20*

Das übertragen von Daten wir immer wichtiger, daher habe ich angefangen mich mit NFC zu beschäftigen. Danke für diese App, die es auch Neulingen einfach macht, nfc zu schreiben
