Solution to Transfer contacts from Android to iPhone

Step 1: Export Contacts from Android

The first step to transferring contacts from Android to iPhone is to export them from your Android device. To do this, open your contacts app and tap on the menu. Select ‘Export’ and choose the format you want to save in. We recommend ‘Excel’ as it is compatible with both Android and iOS devices.

Step 2: Convert Excel File to VCF Format

Once you have exported your contacts from Android to an Excel file, you will need to convert that file to a VCF (vCard) format. You can do this using a reliable Softaken Excel to vCard Converter. This will enable you to transfer the contacts from the Excel file to your iPhone.

Step 3: Transfer Contacts to iPhone

Once you have converted your Excel file to a VCF format, you can easily transfer the contacts to your iPhone. To do this, connect your iPhone to your computer and open iTunes. Select your device and then click on the ‘Info’ tab. Check the box next to ‘Sync Contacts with’ and select ‘Outlook’ from the drop-down menu.

Step 4: Import Contacts to iPhone

The next step is to import the VCF file you converted into iTunes. To do this, go to the ‘File’ menu and select ‘Add File to Library’. Select the VCF file and click ‘Open’. You should now see the contacts you exported from your Android device in the ‘Contacts’ section of your iPhone.    

Step 5: Sync Contacts to iPhone

The last step is to sync the contacts to your iPhone. To do this, go to the ‘Settings’ app on your iPhone and select ‘Mail, Contacts, Calendars’. Tap on ‘Add Account’ and select ‘Outlook’. Enter your account details and then select ‘Sync Contacts’. Your contacts should then be transferred to your iPhone.
