Helpful but not accurate

Very helpful not to need to type in all the cards from an exhibition. Also very good to send them to myself as an excel sheet.

But not very accurate reading and after each scan I need to go through it to make sure no errors

Developer Response ,

Your review is highly appreciated! The quality of recognition highly depends on the quality of the captured photo. To get the best recognition results, please try to keep your hands still while you take pictures. Also make sure you have the right recognition language selected (Settings - Recognition Languages). In case you have any additional questions, please contact us at mobile_support@abbyy.com, we will be glad to assist. Regards,

Nearly brilliant!

Love this app(and I’ve tried a few!). Good character and shape recognition and the fact that it stores in your contacts and they you can instantly send your own card and the email prompt. I find navigating still a little confusing otherwise it would be 5 stars.


Would be really helpful if there was a desktop app so you could fill in details and email from desktop keyboard rather than phone.

Developer Response ,

Thank you for the feedback! We are glad you are satisfied with our application. If you have any additional suggestions regarding the navigation improvement, please, write us a letter to mobile_support@abbyy.com. Have a nice day,

Removed photos from my camera roll

Based on reviews, I just downloaded ABBYY business card reader and purchased a subscription. On first use it appears to have cleared much of my iPhone camera roll without any warning. I’ve disabled further access to the camera and photos and won’t be using the app again —and will be asking for a refund— if this can’t be fixed.

Developer Response ,

BCR app can not remove photos from the camera roll, only can save your scanned in the app pictures. We sincerely want to investigate the situation that you encounter in the application. Please specify the situation in more detail and write us a letter to mobile_support@abbyy.com. Have a nice day,
