There is also a Favorites button, a clock icon for “Recents,” a little present icon for your contact’s Birthdays, and then Settings. In fact, when you first launch Cardhop, you have to give it permission to access your contacts, and it will dutifully pull everything into the app.Īll of your contacts will be available by tapping the circle button in the middle. That’s an excellent question, and I’m going to show you the best features of Cardhop so you can make your own decision, but the brilliant thing is that you DON’T have to use a separate app! Because Cardhop works with the contacts you already have in iCloud or on your phone, and your contacts sync back and forth! Now I’m going to anticipate that the first question that comes to mind, and the same thing that I thought as well … why would I use another app for contacts when it’s already built into the phone? Today’s app is Cardhop from Flexibits, the same company that develops the fantastic Fantastical calendar app / service.įantastical is a superb app that let’s you type in a date or appointment in “natural language” and the app parses it all out into a bona fide calendar appointment.Ĭardhop brings that same “natural language” capability to your contacts!
