Cardhop crashes portable#

In both cases, I think of the medium first-email, text message, phone-and then pull up the contact in the appropriate app. Unfortunately, much as I like Cardhop for standard contact lookups and editing on the Mac, I never use it to initiate communications with contacts, nor do I use it at all on the iPhone. Flexibits remains steadfast in its belief in Cardhop’s contact-first approach-find a contact and then choose how you want to communicate with them.

The basics remain the same in Cardhop 2.0-notably, it still lives in the menu bar on the Mac. I’ve written about Cardhop for both macOS and iOS (see “ Cardhop Puts Contacts Front and Center,” 18 October 2017, and “ Cardhop Rethinks How You Use Contacts in iOS,” 4 April 2019). The company has now released Cardhop 2.0 for the Mac, iPhone, and iPad. Apple now gives us Calendar and Contacts, and those who want more power, flexibility, and better interfaces can instead choose BusyMac’s Bus圜al and Bus圜ontacts or-my current favorites- Fantastical and Cardhop from Flexibits. That’s why we had combined packages like Now Up-to-Date & Contact, Claris Organizer, and Palm Desktop in the past. Many events involve people, and if you’re going to have a phone call with someone or meet at their office, it’s handy to have their contact information associated with the event.
