What it is for

Contact Management keeps scanned business-card details organised and ready for follow-up. Use search to find a person quickly, review or correct their information, and export a backup when needed.

How to use

1. Open Contacts

On Web, sign in and open Dashboard > Contacts > All Contacts. On iOS/Android, tap Contacts in the bottom navigation. Only contacts saved to the signed-in CardySync account are shown.

2. Search and organise the list

Enter a name, company, email address, phone number, or job title in Search. On Web, select a column heading such as Name, Company, Email, Industry, or Created At to change the sorting order.

3. Review a contact

On Web, choose View beside a contact. On iOS/Android, tap the contact card. Review the business-card image and available name, company, job title, phone, email, address, notes, and processing details before using them.

4. Edit and save corrections

Choose Edit on Web, or open the contact and choose Edit Contact on iOS/Android. Correct any missing or inaccurate OCR details, then save your changes. Always check important email addresses and phone numbers against the original card.

5. Export, add to Address Book, or delete

On Web, choose Export CSV to download your saved contacts. On iOS/Android, open a contact and choose Add to Address Book to copy it to the phone after granting permission. To remove a CardySync contact, choose Delete or Delete Contact and confirm carefully; deletion cannot be undone.

Tips

  • Check OCR results against the original business card before contacting someone.
  • Search accepts common contact details, so try a company, email address, or phone number if the name is unclear.
  • Use Export CSV on Web to keep a portable backup before a large clean-up.
  • Adding a contact to the phone Address Book creates a separate device copy; later CardySync edits do not automatically update that copy.
  • Confirm the correct contact before deleting because deletion cannot be undone.
