I'm trying to create a QR code so that iPhone users can import my address book information. I'm doing this by:

  • putting a VCF (vcard) file on my web server
  • creating a QR image that contains this URL.

This is working on my desktop browser (it opens the vcard with the address book app).

On the iPhone, the QR reader successfully tells safari to access the vcard, but then safari complains it does not know how to handle the vcard. I've confirmed that Content-Type: text/x-vcard is being sent.

So, my questions:

  • How do I get Safari to recognize my vcard?
  • Is there another card format that safari recognizes?
