VCard-QRs: Transfer to contacts is not taken all fields into account

Open TheFish123 opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

Hi,

first of all: this is a great app and it's great that bugs get fixed so fast!

There are some issues when tranferring the data from a VCard-QR to my contacts (at least on Android 10 / LineageOS 17.1):

All data is recognized correctly - expect of:

  • the type of phone numbers (work, home, cell) - all phone numbers are just "voice" (but in the text you can find the type)
  • Fax numbers (which is maybe not that important)

When choosing "Add to contacts" the following fields have some issues:

  • since the type of the phone numbers is not recognized, it is also not taken over to the contacts (therefore the I'm asked to provide user defined labels)
  • Website
  • Postal address:
    • Street
    • Zipcode
    • City
    • State
    • Country

You can test it with this QR code (created with https://www.qrcode-monkey.com/#vcard) grafik

I can confirm the bug. I was becoming crazy that all my QR code vcards were missing fields (address, website, etc) when I tried to "add to contacts", no matter with what or how I created the vcard and qr code. It turns out that my vcards / qr code are fine and can be "added to contacts" with no missing field, using another app ( this one works for example https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.secuso.privacyFriendlyCodeScanner/ ).
