MeCard is a compact contact format. Some older Android cameras recognise it more readily than a full vCard. Use it when you only need name, phone, and email.

If your audience is on current iPhones, the vCard tool is usually the better card. MeCard is the fallback.

How to use this tool

  1. Enter the name and the details to share.
  2. Generate the MeCard code.
  3. Import it on a second phone.

Practical guidance

Questions and answers

How is this different from vCard?

MeCard carries fewer fields and is a single line. vCard is richer.

Will every phone import it?

No. Test the phones you care about.

Can I add a postal address?

Leave addresses off public codes. Use the website field for a page that has the rest.
