Feature Request: Import a contact from QR code

Open airone506 opened this issue 5 years ago • 7 comments

Hello, it would be an interesting feature of the Simple Contacts to have the possibility of importing the contact by reading the QR code using the phone built-in camera. The QR code could contain the contact data in the MeCard format and eventually also in the vCard format.

Last but not least. I would like to say you did really great job with the programming of the Simple Mobile Tools application suite. Admirable work indeed.

Hello @serega404, it looks good 👍. Does the modified (modified with your code) application allow to import a new contact by reading the QR code with the phone built-in camera? It is not clear from the screenshot.

My code is only for exporting contacts as QR codes. In my code, I decided not to implement a QR scanner because there are third-party programs that do the same

Still unwanted feature? Do I really need to download an extra app now that I can do this? Especially since this is standard on every new smartphone with the contacts app. Sad that the pr gets rejected.
