Loading...It’s really easy to transfer contacts from Android to iPhone using CopyTrans Contacts. The method described in this article works for all Android phones such as Samsung Galaxy S7, Samsung Galaxy Note, HTC One, Motorola Moto X, etc. and for all iPhone models (iPhone X, 8, 8 Plus, 7, 7 Plus, SE, 6S, 5S, 4S, 3GS, etc) running iOS 10 or earlier.
Unlike other methods, CopyTrans Contacts transfers all contact details including photos, addresses, emails, notes, phone number types, etc. from Android to iPhone. In this demonstration, we use a Samsung Galaxy S6 and an iPhone 6.
Let’s Backup your Android Contacts
-
On the Android phone, open the “People” or “Contacts” app depending on the phone model.
-
Tap “More” or the three dots symbol on the top right of the screen.
On older Android phones, when in the “Contacts” app, tap on the phone “Menu” button and then select “Import/Export”.
-
Choose to export contacts to the device storage.
-
Now connect your Android phone to the computer via the USB cable. If your phone is secured with a pin lock, make sure you unlock it. If the phone prompts you, set the connection type to “Disk Mode” or “USB Connection (Mass Storage Mode)”.
-
The phone will appear as a new portable drive within the “My Computer” section of your PC where all the rest of the PC drives are listed. Double-click on the drive called “Phone”.
If you exported the contacts to the SD card instead, double-click on the drive called “Card”.
-
Find the vCard file. This is the file you created when exporting your Android contacts.
-
Drag and drop the contacts file to the PC Desktop. Disconnect the Android phone.
