ContactCross

Features

What ContactCross does.

The specifics of sync, the card scanner, contact records and follow-ups, including the limits.

Sync

Your Google, Outlook and iCloud contacts, kept in step.

Each connected account is read first, then every change is written back out. A contact that appears in one account is added to the others in the same pass.

Google Contacts
Connect with your Google account. Labels come across as ContactCross groups.
Microsoft Outlook
Personal and work Microsoft accounts. Categories come across as groups.
Apple iCloud
Connects with an app-specific password you create in your Apple Account. We never ask for your main Apple password.
How often
Every 15 minutes on Standard and Premium, hourly on Basic, every 6 hours on Free. There’s also a button to sync right away.
Photos
Contact photos sync along with names, emails, phone numbers and addresses.
Conflicts
If you’ve edited a contact in ContactCross and the change hasn’t gone out yet, your version is kept.

Card scanner

Business cards to contacts, with a review step.

The scanner reads only what’s printed on the card. It fills in the fields it finds and leaves the rest empty rather than guessing.

On a laptop
Hold cards up to the camera one after another. The scanner spots each card and captures it.
On a phone
Take a photo in the browser, or upload pictures you took earlier.
In batches
Upload a set of photos after an event. Each photo becomes one draft contact.
Review
Correct any field, add tags or notes to several drafts at once, and save only the ones you want.
The original
The card photo is attached to the saved contact.
Formats
JPEG, PNG or WebP, up to 5 MB each. Monthly scan allowance depends on your plan.

Contacts

Room for the details that matter later.

A contact holds more than a name and a number, and you can find it again by any of the ways you group people.

Fields
Several emails, phones, addresses and links, each with a label. Job title, company, department, industry, skills and education.
Dates
Birthdays and anniversaries.
Relationships
Who introduced you, colleagues, family, friends, customers, suppliers and investors, each with a note.
Tags and groups
Up to 50 of each on a contact. On Standard and Premium, filter by them and save the searches you use most.
Duplicates
Flagged when two contacts share a name and email, name and phone, or email and phone. You choose what to keep, and can unmerge later.
Import and export
CSV or vCard in and out. Columns are matched on import, and you choose the fields on export.

Follow-ups

To-dos and reminders that belong to someone.

Every to-do and reminder is linked to at least one contact, so open a person and you see what’s outstanding with them.

To-dos
Mark them waiting, in progress, postponed, urgent or done, and tag them.
Reminders
A date, a time and an urgency level. See them as a list or on a calendar.
Files
Attach contracts, proposals or notes to a contact, up to 10 MB per file.
Search
Quick search covers contact names, files, to-dos and reminders.

See your contacts in one place.
