It's so powerful that, once you get used to it, you'll never want to go back to the built-in Contact app again. With Cardhop, you think about the person, hit the hotkey, start typing their name and how you want to contact them, and you're on your way. It's circuitous and leaves you open to multiple distraction and friction points. In traditional computer workflows, you think about a person, figure out how you want to contact them, open the app that will contact them in that way, then find their contact within that app. When you put it all together something profound happens. In addition to Call, you can also just type Copy, Directions, Email, FaceTime, FaceTime Audio, Large Type, Message, Skype, Telegram, Twitter, URL, and VoIP, and get access to all of those actions as well.Ĭopy is brilliant because it removes the tedium of extracting and sharing a contact out of a typical database page. If I type "Call Ser Cal" it'll place a phone call to Serenity using call relay or BT pairing, your choice. (I can even type "work" to specify the kind of email address I'm adding.) Same if I type a date for her birthday. If I type "Ser Cal I add that email address to her contact. If I type "Ser Cal", I get Serenity Caldwell. Cardhop 2.1, the latest update, brings a new feature called Celebrations which makes it a cinch to keep track of the birthdays and anniversaries of all the people in your contact lists.

(I love that, because I'm too lazy to type full names.)īut you don't just type to search. Just like Fantastical, Cardhop too supports natural-language processing, integrates with your favorite apps easily and looks great. Type a fragment of the first and last name, get the contact.
