Tap Scan Business Card’ to pull up the device’s camera. It is important that nothing is obstructing the details on the card

If you are using an iPhone, remember to turn your portrait orientation lock OFF before attempting to scan in landscape

Zuant will automatically read the details and transcribe them into the form

Step 4

You can edit any of the fields if required, and verify your Important Fields within the OCR Results screen
