### 1/5 — World Card Lite

*2015-09-18, version 3.6.1*

This app does not work with ios9. After upgrading to ios9, I lost all my contacts!

### 1/5 — Notes field

*2015-08-19, version 3.6.1*

A good idea but work the bugs out guys. The notes field will not accept a paste. This makes this app useless to me.

### 2/5 — Big Disappointment

*2015-07-27, version 3.6.1*

After many hours of reviewing the many options of choosing a good business card reader program, I thought I really found the one that filled all my needs. Then I decided to download the free version before paying any money and really being disappointed if I was to be unsatisfied. Well, it started out really well and was performing as a card reader should. Unlike many of the comments I was reading earlier, it still is a card reader and that's all I really expected, with good organization capabilities. The only issue I found, which is somewhat critical, is that the cropping function does not work. It has two options for cropping. One is automatic and when that didn't work properly, I tried the manual, which didn't functional all. It allowed me to crop the card the way I needed it to be, however the issue was that it just didn't allow me to save the changes after I repetitiously tried saving it many many times over. I feel that if they can work out this bug, this might be worth purchasing. I would definitely consider it if they can resolve this major issue.

### 1/5 — Can't sync google contacts

*2015-02-15, version 3.5.2*

Sync never end while start it.

### 2/5 — Review of world card hd

*2013-12-12, version 3.1.2*

Not that great. Must make a lot of corrections in all areas. They don't tell you it only holds 30 cards.  Then they want you to pay almost $7.00 for an upgrade. Not worth it.

### 3/5 — Twitter, LinkedIn use better if scanned

*2013-10-16, version 3.0.1*

The search on Twitter and LinkedIn is okay but not NEARLY as useful as scanning these in! A social media field set is needed with options for these and include 'other' to future-proof. I have to manually enter in notes.

### 5/5 — Lite Vs. Paid

*2013-10-12, version 3.0.1*

What's the difference between the Lite Vs. Paid version?

### 3/5 — Tricked

*2013-05-01, version 2.0.5*

Works well for the most part, but after a period of time, once you begin to rely on it....they lock you out of new entries and insist that you pay $15 for the full version.

### 1/5 — Horrid

*2013-04-28, version 2.0.5*

This does not scan properly.  Only uses back camera.   Poor interface.  Crashes all the time.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2013-03-05, version 2.0.1*

Shows importing contacts already on the iPad, then never shows any contacts. Not sure what this app is actually used for as there are no actual uses for an app that does nothing.

I would give it negative as a rating if possible.
