vCard Viewer

Open a vCard contact file and read the details it holds in a clean, laid-out form.

Reading a contact file

A vCard — a .vcf file — is the standard way contact details are shared and exported: name, phone numbers, emails, address, organisation and more, stored as text. Opened raw it is a list of coded fields; this lays it out as a readable contact card, so you can see exactly who and what is in a file before importing it or check the details it carries.

Drop in the .vcf file and the contact details are displayed clearly.

Handy when moving contacts around

vCards turn up whenever contacts move between systems — an export from a phone or mail app, a contact someone shared, a backup file. Being able to read one directly lets you confirm it holds what you expect before importing it somewhere, or pull out a single detail without loading it into an address book. And because it opens in your browser, a file full of personal contact details is not uploaded just to be viewed.
