The vCard format was first introduced in 1995 as a standardized way to exchange contact information between email clients, but it has since become a widely-used format for sharing contact information across different devices, platforms, and applications.
Overall, vCards provide a convenient and standardized way to share contact information between different applications and devices, without the need to manually enter or retype information.
