Do iOS and Android both support vCard v4?

Yes. iOS 13+ and modern Android readers parse v3/v4. QRCodeCat outputs a compatible vCard string for both.

Is this the same as a contact QR code?

Yes. A contact QR code is simply a vCard QR code that saves details directly into a phone’s address book.

Can I include a profile photo?

Yes. Add a public image URL in the Photo field. Some scanners may ignore photos, so test on your target devices.

Which fields are required?

A full name plus either phone or email is recommended so contacts save correctly.

What QR size fits on a business card?

We recommend a minimum of 20 mm width at 300 DPI with error correction level M to survive print finishes.

vCard QR code fields (what to include)

A vCard QR code can contain more than a name and phone number. For business cards and networking, include company, job title, email, website, and address so scanners save a complete contact. Optional fields like photo URL and notes help your contact feel polished and professional.

Identity: full name, company, title
Contact: phone, email, website
Optional: address, photo URL, notes

Download formats and print guidance

PNG is great for web and email signatures, while SVG is ideal for printing business cards, badges, and signage. Keep the QR code at least 20–25 mm wide at 300 DPI and preserve a quiet zone so scanners lock instantly.
