In today’s digital-first world, staying connected is more important than ever. And as the way we communicate evolves, so should the tools we use to manage our contacts and professional presence. Enter HiHello—an innovative solution that’s changing the game when it comes to contact sharing. If you’ve ever wondered why HiHello might be a better alternative to using Apple Contacts, you're not alone. Let’s dive into the reasons that make HiHello stand out as a superior choice for contact sharing.

Sharing Contacts via HiHello instead of Apple Contacts

When it comes to sharing contact details most people would typically default to using their phone’s contacts feature. To explain why HiHello is a better choice, we’ll compare it to using Apple Contacts.

sharing contact information with Apple Contacts

One of the major benefits of HiHello is the ability to create multiple cards with different information, depending on the intended setting. You may want to share different contact information at a work event versus school pickup, and all the scenarios in between.  HiHello allows you the ability to change contact information, photos, and links in its easy-to-use mobile app or on desktop. The best part is it only takes a few minutes to create a new card or update an old one.

Multiple Sharing Options

With HiHello, you can easily share your card via QR code, a link, email signature, or a virtual background. Because of the dynamic QR code integration the possibilities are really endless. With Apple Contacts, you’re more limited—you can select the fields you want to share, and you can create multiple contacts for yourself in theory, but they are all tied back to and must live in your phone, so you must always give our your phone number or associated email id.  

Digital Cards that Dynamically Update

HiHello allows you to create dynamic digital business or contact cards. These cards are more than just a static collection of details or links. If the recipient you’re sharing your contact with has HiHello (and they don’t need to!), your contact will continue to dynamically update in their contact book over time. Consider the times you’ve changed jobs, moved, updated your email address, or even physical mailing address.

With HiHello this information gets instantly updated to the recipient via the HiHello contact book.  If not using HiHello, recipients can easily save your contact information directly to their device and can even send their contact details back to you with just a few taps. This exchange is smoother and more enriched than the manual process of sharing contact cards from traditional Contacts.

CRM Integration

HiHello integrates with various CRM systems, such as Google Contacts and Outlook, making it easy to sync your contact information across your devices and platforms. This ensures that your contact management is organized and up to date. Apple Contacts, while useful for storing personal information, doesn’t have the same level of CRM integration, making it harder to manage large-scale professional networks.
