Google Contacts adds vCard sharing for custom Calling Cards
Google is rolling out a new feature in Contacts version 4.88.28.981523105 that lets users include their custom Calling Card data when exporting or sharing a .vcf contact file. The update also adds a 'View archived info' section that logs previous versions of a user's 'Your info' data.
GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
This extends Calling Cards, introduced last year, into one of the most common ways people exchange contact details, making personalized profile info easier to pass along outside the app. The report also notes long-standing support documentation referencing photo 'Effects' for Calling Cards that still don't exist in the app, suggesting Google may be planning further customization options it has yet to ship.
- Google Contacts now supports sharing custom Calling Card data via vCard (.vcf) files.
- A new 'View archived info' setting tracks past versions of a user's contact info.
- Documented but unreleased 'Effects' for Calling Card photos remain unimplemented over a year after being described.
