SHOOT: Swap Business Cards
One tap. No account. Private.
Only for iPhone
Free · Designed for iPhone. Not verified for macOS.
iPhone
Swap cards with a whole room in one tap. Scan LinkedIn and other QR codes, paper cards and badges. Add your card to Apple Wallet. Share with anyone, no app needed.
Ten people meet. Nobody reads out a phone number, spells an email, or
photographs a badge on somebody else's screen.
Everyone taps once, and it is done.
HOW IT WORKS
Someone says "shoot". Everyone presses the button. Any phone that pressed
within the same eight seconds, standing close enough, joins the same huddle.
Two people save each other straight away — they both pressed a button while
standing together, which is the yes. Three or more see a list of cards first,
so anybody from the next table who tapped at the same moment can be taken out
before anything is sent.
Then cards save both ways. You get their card only if they also kept yours.
No pending requests, no one-sided follows, nothing to accept later.
WE HOLD NOTHING
This is not a promise about how carefully we would look after your data. There
is no account, no database, and nothing on our side to look after.
- Your position is read for a few seconds while a huddle forms, so the app can
tell who is standing next to you. Held in memory, never written to disk.
- Your card passes through to the phones in your huddle and is gone from our
side once they have it. It lives on your phone and theirs.
- Your contacts are read on the device only, if you turn it on. Your address
book never leaves your phone.
- What you call people, and anybody you have blocked, are never sent to us.
They stay on your phone, and travel only in your phone's own backup, to your
own iCloud account.
- There is no account. Nothing to sign up for, nothing to delete.
THE PART A CONTACTS LIST NEVER DOES
Your address book knows a name and a number. It does not know you met at a
festival in June, or which of these people is the one who does sound.
Label people the way you actually think of them - a festival, a client, the
Tuesday table - and invent a new label whenever none of yours fits. Then
search by what somebody does rather than by a name you have half forgotten,
because the person you need next month is "that ceramicist", not "Jane".
CARDS WORTH HANDING OVER
Ten designs, and none of them look like a form. Matte black and gold with a
name that lights letter by letter, pressed editorial ink, soft blossom, a
blueprint grid. Pick a colourway and a typeface; put a photograph on the ones
that show one.
Carry up to three cards - work, personal, and one more. The card showing on
your home screen is the card a shoot sends, so you swipe to the right one and
tap.
ALSO
- Read a paper business card with the camera and keep it as a card
- Show your address book as cards, and move anybody across into SHOOT
- Send your card on WhatsApp or anywhere else as a link. Somebody without the
app sees it in a browser and can save it to their contacts; somebody with
SHOOT opens it straight in the app
- Or send it as a contact file, with your photo on it
- Add your Instagram and LinkedIn. They show as small marks on your card, and
a tap opens the profile
- Block somebody and they never appear in a huddle of yours again, at any
event. They are not told, and it stays on your phone
- Back up to your own storage whenever you like. The file is plain, readable
JSON - a backup you cannot open is one you cannot trust
SHOOT needs two or more phones in the same place. On your own, tapping the
button will tell you nobody else shot, which is the app working rather than
failing.
Ratings & Reviews
- This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
Scan QR codes. Point the camera at a LinkedIn, Instagram or contact code, or at somebody’s SHOOT card, and it is kept as a card. Paper cards go in a frame and are read the same way, with a torch for dim rooms.
Your own card now carries its QR code on the back, one flip away.
Better reading of paper cards, and long job titles fit on two lines.
Fixes to scanning, saving and the swap screen on small phones.
