The chances of people retyping your business card info into their phone are slim because it's a hassle. Instead, flip Skrol horizontally to reveal your touchless business card with a QR code. This way, everyone you meet can instantly add your contact information to their smartphone. And unlike a conventional business card, a QR code can pass links to Twitter, LinkedIn, Instagram, Facebook, product pages, chat services, photos, and a brief searchable bio.

Many people give up on using contact organizers because adding new contacts by hand, let alone on a smartphone, is such a pain. Not so with Skrol because you wouldn’t need to type in most cases. Researching contacts on a smartphone is even more challenging because you need to retype or copy/paste names into the browser. And good luck adding found information from the browser to the contact folder, especially images, links, and addresses. Skrol solves all that, and here is how:

Plain vanilla organizers don't get much use because they focus mainly on storing names, emails, and phone numbers. Not surprisingly, all people-related apps, such as WhatsApp or LinkedIn, develop their own contacts list, each with its own user interface and quirks. To get in touch with anyone, you need to locate and open the app first, find the person next, and, finally, open their folder. Not so with Skrol — just tap the service icon you wish to use, and it instantly opens a related app with the contact's name in focus, ready to start a call or chat. Here is how it works:

If you find yourself sending similar text messages or emails, again and again, you can save a good deal of time by using templates instead. This way, you can accomplish the same tasks in a fraction of the time. Templates are especially handy on the go, in the car, or if you aren't a fast typist.

Skrol is optimized for managing multiple groups of different people. The smallest group is represented by immediate family and close friends whom your contact often via the Favorites group. Next are the groups of co-workers, key clients, or other friends whom you contact less often, and groups like doctors, attorneys, and plumbers whom you contact mostly in emergencies. Finally, there are extended family, former classmates, and distant friends that we seldom contact, and the largest group are the people we hoard just in case but rarely if ever, contact again. These people are rarely organized into specific, memorable groups, so we need a reliable search to find them. This section is about ensuring you can get in touch with everyone important reliably and find the rest when “just in case” becomes the case.

Skrol is organized into Address books, Lists and Galleries, Groups, and Folders. This structure is identical to the iPhone's Contacts app but is optimized for privacy and ease of use. Here is a brief description of each component and their respective benefits:
