Tap the recipient's phone: - iPhones should be tapped at the very top - Androids should be tapped on the back ![Tap Illustration color@3x](https://knowledgebase.stinto.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Tap%20Illustration%20color@3x.png?width=381&height=286&name=Tap%20Illustration%20color@3x.png) 2. Once read, the recipient can see your card and they can enter their information and send it back to you. If your card is not immediately read, simply ask your new contact to scan the QR code on the back of the StintoTap instead. If the recipient is also on Stinto, their app will open and you can connect there.
