Group contact swap
Ten people meet. Nobody reads out a phone number, spells an email, or photographs a badge. Everyone taps once, and it is done.
Android testing now. iPhone next.

The mechanic
Someone says "shoot". Everyone presses. Any phone that pressed within the same eight seconds, standing close enough, joins the same huddle.
01
The phones that tapped with you show up as a list of cards — not a code to read out, not a QR to point a camera at.
02
Someone at the next table tapped at the same moment? Take them out before you confirm. Nothing has been sent yet.
03
You get their card only if they also kept yours. No pending requests, no one-sided follows, nothing to accept later.
Afterwards
Your address book knows a name and a number. It does not know you met at a festival in June, or which of these people is the one who does sound.
Label people the way you actually think of them — Awakening Group, clients, the Tuesday table — and invent a new label whenever none of yours fits. Then search by what someone does rather than by a name you have half forgotten, because the person you need next month is "that ceramicist", not "Jane".
Privacy
Not a promise about how carefully we would look after it. There is no database, no account, and nothing on our side to look after.
The whole policy is two pages, and worth reading.
