The Umbel app keeps every card you have one swipe away. Show your code, change your card, scan a paper one and keep the people you meet, wherever you are.

Coming soon to both stores.
Drag your card down and its QR code is there, ready to scan. Swipe sideways for your other cards and the code follows the one in front.
The offline code holds your details in the code itself, for a room with no signal
Send your card by message, email or any app on your phone
Save the code to Photos to print or post
Turn on Edit and change any part of your card where it sits. The look is in one sheet: colours, card, background and font.
Every preset drawn on your own card before you pick it
Undo and redo while you work
The same card you edit on umbel.me
Point the camera at a card someone hands you. Umbel reads the name, job, company, email and phone, and you check them before they are saved.
Take several in a row and each is read as you go
Scan an Umbel QR code to open that person's card
People who send you their details from your card land in Contacts, with how they found you. Pick a few and save them to your phone's own contacts.
Search by name or company
Anyone already in your phone is skipped
Add a note to remember where you met
Hold a sticker, keyring or card with an NFC chip to your phone and it opens your card with a tap from then on.
Each tag is counted on its own in Analytics
Use any NFC tag you like. Umbel doesn't sell them
Hold your phone near the tag.
CancelAdd the My card widget to your Lock Screen or Home Screen. One tap and your code is up, ready to scan.
Choose which card the widget shows
Your cards open without signal too
Works offline
Your cards and their pictures are kept on the phone, so they open anywhere.

Team cards
Cards your team gives you sit beside your own, one filter away.

Duplicate it, make it your default, publish or archive it from one menu.

What you change on the phone is on umbel.me, and the other way round.
