How can I get my contacts from iCloud to Android?

To transfer your contacts from iCloud to an Android device, follow these methods:

Method 1: Using iCloud Website (Manually)

1. Log into iCloud.com on a desktop browser.
2. Navigate to Contacts and select the ones you want to export.
3. Click the cog icon (Settings), then choose 'Export vCard'. This creates a .vcf file containing your selected contacts.
4. Save the .vcf file to your computer.
5. Connect your Android device to your computer via USB.
6. Copy the saved .vcf file onto your Android device's internal storage or SD card.
7. Open your Android's Contacts app, navigate to Menu, then Import/Export.
8. Choose Import from USB storage and select the copied .vcf file.
9. Confirm importing all contacts within the file.

Method 2: Using Third-Party Software or Mobile Apps

Consider using dedicated tools like SyncGene, SmoothSync for Cloud Contacts, or Sync for iCloud Contacts:

1. Sign up or install the chosen service or app.
2. Follow their instructions to authenticate both your iCloud and Android accounts.
3. Enable synchronization options according to the platform's guidelines.

These services offer varying features including direct server connections, two-way synchronizations, and customizable sync intervals. Always consider the safety and privacy policies before choosing a third-party solution.
