Any ideas to transfer iPhone contacts to Z2

Hello everyone,

I am a long time iPhone user and switched to Xperia Z2 recently. As the my old iPhone is pretty much old and I want to use Z2 as my working phone. One of the questions I came across is how to copy all of my contacts(200+) from iPhone to Z2?  As they are totally different plaftforms and can't think up a way to get it done.

Would some one give me any suggestion?

Hi @KatrinaKaif,

What problem do you experience? To export the contacts to a vCard file? If I'm not mistaken, you need to login with your Apple-id at https://www.icloud.com/ > Go to Contacts > Mark all contacts > In the bottom left corner you should find the gear wheel > Choose Export vCard > Save it on your desktop e.g > You can now move this file to your Xperia phone or import it at your Google account (https://contacts.google.com).

Try Gmail or phone transfer tool to help you transfer iPhone contacts to Z2. About the details, just search online and choose the way you like better.

If you don't wan't to use the xperia software for whatever reason, you can simply activate your gmail account in your iPhone and sync your contacts with google and it should all happen automagically in your Z2


Yes, it is not that much trouble. You can transfer contacts via Google Account + iCloud/iTunes: Sync contacts to iCloud/iTunes > Export contacts from iCloud/iTunes and import them into Google Accounts > Log in to your Google account on your Android phone and download contacts. And, if you don't have a lot of contacts and don't have more than 200, you can use the SIM card to transfer the iPhone contacts to Xperia Z2.
