QR Code vCard Explained

vCard is a standardized plain-text format for contact information (name, phone, email, company, website) that phones already know how to read — encoding one into a QR code means scanning it offers to save those details directly into contacts, with no app or account needed.

Because vCard is an open, decades-old standard rather than a proprietary format, it works identically across iPhone and Android without any special app — the native contacts-save prompt appears automatically after scanning. This is what powers the "Contact" content type in most QR generators, including this one.
