I’m working on a program that allows users to cycle through a variety of contacts in a list viewer. Once a user finds a contact that they want to establish a business relationship with, I want them to be able to export the contact to a vcard (vcf) file so that they can place the contact in their ac…

Hi Jim, If you try the project I linked above, it’ll open a fake contact card – or at least, it does on iPhone, and then there’s an ‘add contact’ button at the end. :slight_smile: It’s proof of principle that it’ll work, not yet a working version. Good night, @muneer ! :slight_smile: (updated - a…

@jim.malmberg38 @catsarisky I updated the project to make it workable. I found that in Android, it did not accept the file after being downloaded. I can see it and see that all information is saved but the contact app on the phone doesn’t want to import it. I searched in the net and found that a …

Good job @muneer , it works well for me.

My iphone asks if it should download but does not open it. It’s possible you need some OS-specific code, since it was working for iphone yesterday. Updated: Yep. My phone wants this as the file-type instead: [image] Also, I think you have first and last names reversed?

@catsarisky Thank you for the confirmation about file types. I’ll check on my end to see if it works for Android too. I saw that the names are reversed but as it is a proof of concept and didn’t bother to fix it. Thanks again. [Update] Yes, I tested the file type “text/vcard” and it works for A…

Thanks for posting it! @jim.malmberg38 , if you have questions on how to use @muneer ’s work, post 'em and we’ll get you squared away. To summarize what I think you need to do: Muneer’s prototype takes text inputs. Use his work as a model to plug in your google sheets values instead. If you want…

Many thanks for the explanation. See a vCard sample file attached vcard-format.txt (909 Bytes)

Sorry for the late response. I just tried this and it downloaded it. Txt file to my phone. I changed it to vcf and tried to imported but that didn’t work. What am I doing wrong here?

Which version of the project are you using? And what type of phone? You aren’t trying to install muneer’s createfile.txt as a vcf are you? (Sorry if that’s a silly question - I find it good to rule out the easy problems first.)
