How to use Contacts in the Mobile App

You can manage your existing Contacts, add new ones, check notes, Opportunities, Projects, and Tasks that are associated with that Contact. You’ll be able to access your Contacts whether your device is online or offline.

How to create Contacts from your phone

3. Select which type of Contact to add; Add Person or Organization
4. Enter in your Contact’s details

Importing your phone Contacts into the App

You can import Contacts from your phone into Capsule Mobile. To import a new Contact:

1. Navigate over to Contacts
2. Tap the Add new and select Import Contact.
3. There are some limitations to what can be imported, as there are certain details that need to be in place. For example, a Person will need either a first and/or last name and an Organization will need an Organization name.

The import process works hand-in-hand if you have an app to scan business cards on your device. With the card scanning app, you can save the Contact to your device and then import it into your account using the Capsule Mobile app.

Here are some examples of popular business card scanning apps:

• iOS: CamCard or Contacts+ | AddressBook
• Android CamCard
