Me 3.1: Share Your Contact, Your Way

Me 3.1 is now available for free. This release makes it easier to keep your contact details close at hand—and more importantly, to share the right version of them with the right person.

What’s new in Me 3.1

Saved sharing profiles let you create reusable choices such as Personal, Work, or Networking.

QR contact cards let anyone scan your selected details, including people using Android.

Send to Myself adds a Share Sheet extension for quickly moving files into a new email to yourself.

Widgets, Siri, and Shortcuts put your preferred contact details one tap—or one voice request—away.

A refreshed sharing flow, onboarding experience, and new app icon round out the update.

A small app with a long history

I first created Me in 2009. At the time, its purpose was simple: I wanted a fast way to pull up my own contact information whenever I needed it. No digging through Contacts to find my phone number, email address, or mailing address.

Over time, Me became more useful as a way to share my contact information. My contact card has a lot of data, and I do not always want to give all of it to every person I meet. Me made it possible to share only the specific fields I wanted: perhaps a work email address and phone number, but not a home address or other personal details.

Apple has since brought selective contact sharing into iOS, which is genuinely useful. In a sense, Apple “Sherlocked” one of Me’s best features. But sharing is still contextual, and Me 3.1 improves on that idea with saved sharing profiles. I can now set up a Personal profile, a Work profile, or any other combination of contact details, then choose the appropriate one without rebuilding the selection each time.

Beyond AirDrop

AirDrop is a great way to share a contact between Apple devices, but it does not help when the person standing in front of you uses Android. Me 3.1 adds QR contact cards so you can share your selected details with anyone who has a QR code reader. They scan the code, add the contact, and you stay in control of what was included.

The underlying idea has not changed since 2009: your contact information should be easy to reach and easy to share. Me 3.1 simply gives that idea more useful, more private, and more flexible ways to work.
