WorldCard giveaway

Posted on 29 June, 2010 by Jimmy Liew

Remember sometime back we reviewed the WorldCard Mobile iPhone app -

To start, you just need to snap a photo of the namecard, or retrieved photos of cards taken earlier. Then just let the app works its magic. The character recognition on the WorldCard mobile app is quite impressive. I’ve tried two cards so far and have gotten 90% success rates! The only misspelling I’ve seen was mistaking a “l” for an “i”. While checking the correctness of the scanned data, you can even go back to the image, and manually select the area to tag to the correct data. Once that is done, you can save it in your iPhone as a new entry, or to append to an existing entry.

Well those guys at PenPower Inc has just updated the WorldCard Mobile app to be iOS4 compatible and also with the following features:

1. Automatic Camera Shake Reduction
2. Email Signature Capture
3. Improvement of Recognition Accuracy
4. Integrates with the WorldCard Contacts(sold separately)to make a call, send a text message or email, browse to the company website directly from their business cards image.

Back then, we promise a small giveaway when the app is updated. Thanks to the folks at PenPower Inc, here’s the giveaway:
