I'm building a light weight personal CRM/contacts management app for Android

I wanted to share an Android app I’ve been developing and get some thoughts from the tech board. I'm in the petrochemical industry, and over the years, my contact list has grown to over 2,000 people. I got tired of manually typing in contact info every time I met someone new or was handed a business card.
So I built my own app. It’s called Gravitate. It’s an offline-first personal CRM and business card scanner.
I am just about done with the core development. I'm getting ready to hand the app off to my designer (wife, no pics) to overhaul the look and feel with custom animations and polish before we launch.
Before we lock it down for the Play Store, I want to get it into the hands of some guys who would actually use it. I’m looking for 3 to 4 beta testers from each of my main target fields to try it out, try to break it, and tell me what I need to tweak:
Industrial / Construction / Project Management
Outside Sales / Real Estate
Recruiters / Executives
Let me know what you guys think of the concept, or if you'd be down to test the beta in a week or so.

Here is the quick rundown of what it does:
Instant Offline Scanner: Uses your camera to scan business cards instantly and auto populate contact fields. It processes everything directly on your phone, so it works when you have zero cell service.
The Radar: Automatically drops every contact you save an address for onto a map so you can see exactly where your network is and plan routes. Multiple filtering options
The Context Hub: Can group your contacts by specific events, projects, or job sites. Read and write to calendar.
Memos & Relationship Tracking: Lets you record a 60-second audio debrief right after a meeting, and uses color-coded indicators to tell you when a warm relationship is going stale. Tracks different forms of contact.

Interesting. At first I thought, "I can scan business cards in OfficeLens (deprecated)." But it seems you're providing value above that. I like it, but my outside sales do not generally involve anywhere I can drive to in under a few hours.

I would use something like that.

Looks cool, but you should clean the customer data from the screenshots (unless that’s sample data).

I hadn't thought of that user base. I should have because I got a stack of business cards to test with from a purchasing guy.

Thank you for giving me ideas to add to the LPM (with included CRM) I'm vibe coding currently.
