Transfer Contacts From iPhone To Android
Step 1:- in case you want to move specific contacts only, you can use the Share Contact option. Open up the contacts up and select the contact you wish to save. Swipe down and select the tab, which allows you to either share it via e-mail or text.If the number of contacts you want exceed ten, then this obviously is not your place to go. But if it is below that number, there is no need for using the methods below”
Step 2 – iCloud

Both Contacts and People applications feature an option that allows you to add contacts from various sources. Since you saved it to your SD card, you will select the Import from storage source.
Step 3 via an App
iPhone 3G commercial back in 2009 “there is an app for that”. We found two apps that might be useful for this procedure. And no, your computer does not need to be consulted. In this example, we will use the My Contacts Backup app, but there are other options out there.
1) Download and launch the app on your iPhone.
2) When the app (“MCBackup”) asks to access your contacts, tap OK
3) Tap Backup
4) Tap email, attach the VCF file to an email and send it to your Gmail account.
5) Open up the email from your Android device, download the VCF file and import your contacts to the phone.
As demonstrated by the image below, the VCF file allows you to either select specific contacts to import to your list, or add the entire address book with the Add All X Contacts tab.
