  8. Open the “Contacts” app and use it to import the vCard to your phonebook

Via “Send Anywhere”:

NOTE: Send Anywhere is another third party application you can use to transfer contacts without needing a computer. The app uses a peer-to-peer connection to transfer contacts and other types of files.

  1. Go to the App Store and install “Send Anywhere” on the iPhone
  2. Visit the Google Play Store and install the app on the Galaxy J1
  3. Launch the app on both devices
