I lost all my cards

not free as advertised. requires subscription.
★★★★ Michelle Ostrowski 3/14/2026 v7.85.9.20251107
deleted all my cards, when I would not upgrade $$$
★★★★ Bunnies Lui 2/25/2026 v7.88.5.20260206
Update after developer pseudo-reply: CamCard refuses to address the fact that my original subscription in 2023 does not appear anywhere in Google Play Subscriptions, yet CamCard kept silently auto‑charging €54.99 in 2024 and 2025 with zero visibility and no way to cancel. This is deceptive, outrageous, user‑hostile billing. I deleted all data and demanded full cancellation. CamCard must stop renewals immediately. Other users: be warned and watch your payments carefully - This app is deceptive.
★★★★ Judith Raquel Mendoza Villalobos 2/8/2026 v7.86.8.20251229
Scam, it's trying to force me to pay and I haven't even scanned 100 cards. I really regret downloading this
★★★★ GPF Lighting 2/3/2026
BUSINESS PROFESSIONALS BEWARE ONE, I tried to pay but there is no one to talk to to process payment. Auto process has flaw but got that fix TWO, Well I notice I couldnt find my bz cards and CS did supply me with instructions on how to get in via computer to check my account and reset password. But all the years of inputting bus cards have all vanished. What a waste trusting this company. And I paid for the app.
★★★★ Jay Bulworth 1/18/2026
No monthly plan. I'm not going to buy something for a year that I've not tried for a day.
★★★★ Stephanie Danielson 12/19/2025 v7.86.7.20251205
New format is stupid and AI adds nothing. The new interface is difficult to use and is not at all intuitive and i don't understand what value AI adds to this app. Just because AI exists doesn't mean it has a use everywhere.
★★★★ Tim Farley 12/11/2025 v7.86.7.20251205
Keeps glitching. Can't edit contacts. Sync error. Won't let me upgrade (if more storage space is required) and useless help section. A terrible app
★★★★ Jakob E 11/24/2025
5 stars to 1: i used to recommend to everyone and use this religiously before any pay features.
★★★★ mrbama135 11/18/2025 v7.86.5.20251117

★★★★ Parker Fairfield 10/31/2025 v7.80.7.20250625
didn't like it g forcing me to purchase. tried to trick me to buy a premium. then couldn't cancel the free trial easily. I had to CANCEL THE APP and they say they'll give me an answer 14 days later. it's a 3 day trial. Ridiculous.
★★★★ Mohammad Shamim 10/21/2025 v7.85.5.20251016

★★★★ Dwijo Prabowo (Bowo Ajah) 9/23/2025 v7.84.6.20250919
Tidak ada peringatan. Mendadak database hilang. Ternyata model pembayaran berubah. kapok dah pakai aplikasi ini
★★★★ A Google user 8/6/2025 v7.77.5.20250102
This app used to be free. Now that they switched over to charging, I rejected the service fee & lost all my cards on file.
★★★★ Ken lawley 7/25/2025 v7.81.8.20250711
screwed!!!! I have been using this app for years and have a lot of cards saved on here. it's been a free app. then all of a sudden if you want to see your cards you have to pay for the app. blackmailed to see my stuff? sounds like I've lost all of my contacts saved over the years!! what a joke!!!!
★★★★ Quang Duong Vinh 7/15/2025 v7.80.6.20250529
scam
★★★★ Fernanda Cançado 7/5/2025 v7.80.7.20250625
terrible scanning feature....
★★★★ Lea 6/13/2025 v7.80.6.20250529
DON'T SUBSCRIBE TO TRIAL PERIOD. THEY SCAM YOU INTO A FULL 54.99 EURO MEMBERSHIP. I CANCELED SAME DAY VIA EMAIL AND THEY JUST IGNORE YOUR CANCELATION. SCAMMERS. ALSO THEY CHARGE EXTRA FOR HIGH RESOLUTION SCANS APART FROM MEMBERSHIP EDIT I didn't touch the app for a month and suddenly it charged me a 1 month membership of 10,99 Euro on its own without me touching my phone. When I opened the app, it's bugged and I can't even access the scanned cards. Don't use this scam.
★★★★ Maint Request 6/8/2025 v7.80.6.20250529
can't get card files into regular contact app , seems like it's replicating it's own contact list.
★★★★ Andrew Strong 6/4/2025 v7.77.7.20250306
I lost all my business cards. I'm not impressed at all.
★★★★ Randy Cole 6/1/2025 v7.80.6.20250529

★★★★ king kapolapache 5/20/2025 v7.79.7.20250427
Haven't used this in a whole. It used to be free. All my old info is gone. Good time for me to move on.
★★★★ A Google user 5/9/2025 v7.19.6.20181010
WAS the best app to import contacts that i have seen, however, recently the app requires a payment plan to keep using. 1st it limited to 5 cards Perdana, then per week, now cannot save to contacts without a plan. thanks alot cc! bye bye felicia
★★★★ Jake Skuraton 5/3/2025 v7.79.7.20250427

★★★★ Rana Arif Rafiq 2/24/2025 v7.77.6.20250120
It is highly unusual that CamCard was able to charge my account for this app without my explicit authorization. I never provided any payment details, yet the charges were deducted automatically. The fact that this transaction occurred within seconds is quite alarming, raising concerns about the security of personal data. I urge everyone to exercise caution.
★★★★ Matthew Pritchard 2/19/2025 v7.77.6.20250120
⭐☆☆☆☆ Disappointing OCR - Awaiting Refund Some cards scanned correctly, but too many had errors requiring manual corrections, making this app not worth the premium price. I tested it on Feb 15 and stopped using it, yet was unknowingly charged for a 1-year subscription on Feb 18. I’ve contacted support for a refund and will update this review once resolved. Hoping for a quick response. OCR accuracy needs improvement-premium pricing should mean premium performance.
★★★★ Scott Monroe 1/12/2025 v7.77.5.20250102
Bought this app years ago and used for years paid for lifetime license now want 50 bucks a year. Sucks going to Abby

Horrible Worst ocr and image recognition, very bad UI Adds, stay away
★★★★★ Crystal Olsen 1/22/2026 v7.86.8.20251229
I liked the app until... I needed help. support is ZERO. I got a new phone. couldnt transfer my cards to the new phone. spent weeks trying. i gave up & bought a new subscription. 6 months later i discover I'm paying for both subscriptions. both registered to same phone number. i tried to contact them. they only do email and i need to talk to someone or even chat online. looking for a replacement app.
★★★★★ David Siebert 11/21/2025 v7.82.7.20250728
too much upselling in these later versions. They LIE. They claim that you can use the app for up to 100 cards before needing to buy a subscription. I have 69 and it won't let me do hardly anything.
★★★★★ Harry D 10/2/2025 v7.84.7.20250925
I like how you can easily scan, but I don't understand the premium vs. other services. I will follow up with an update later. ok, I paid for a premium account and there is some type of glitch if you are adding a batch of cards. when you click on edit, you cannot edit cards. I liked this app and have told coworkers and friends about it, but maybe there is something better. Scanning is easy, and the appearance is great. If they can figure out the edit screen like it used to work, Id be happy.
★★★★★ Andrei Akopian 10/1/2025 v7.84.7.20250925
can't edit new cars data after scan
★★★★★ Saif Tai 4/25/2025 v7.79.6.20250417
Hi, I'm using camcard for many years now. very good on scanning card and storing it but an issue with QR code while other are scanning the card, camcard is asking to enter their information and multiple steps before they can save in their contact not straight forward step to save. within one scan we should save it. thanks to look into this as if I m a premium user why those steps are there. it's frustrating for the people who I'm sharing the QR code. if we can improve this that will be great.
★★★★★ Patrick Lee 2/2/2025
Not worth 49.9 yearly subscription being asked for
★★★★★ Anton Diez 12/15/2024 v7.76.5.20241210
Very bad, does not read the information sometimes, and when it doesn't reed it, need to do it all by yourself.
