Save someone by scanning their code

Met someone at an event or around town? Scan their personal Frequency code and they land in My Contacts, ready for a follow-up.

How it works

• When you scan another member's personal code (the Connect code from their Zap button), Frequency saves them as a contact for you.
• The contact is pre-filled from their public profile: their name, and their title if they chose to share it. Their photo shows automatically because the contact is linked to their profile.
• It's stamped with where and when you met, the event or place if the code carried one, otherwise your city, plus the date.
• Right after the scan, you land on their contact page, so you can set a follow-up in one tap.

Private to you

This is your own note that you met them. It works just like saving a business card:

• The contact is private. Only you can see it.
• The person you scanned is not notified, and they are not added to any mailing list.
• Scan the same person again and Frequency updates your existing contact instead of making a duplicate.

Find them later

Your scanned contacts gather under the QR Scan tab in My Contacts. Open one to add a note, a tag, or a follow-up reminder, the same as any other contact.

Good to know

• You need to be signed in to save a contact by scanning.
• Scanning your own code does nothing.
• Want to grow your contacts another way? You can also scan a business card or add someone by hand.
