   • Connect the HTC device to the computer via USB, transfer the vCard to the phone storage and import its contents to your phonebook using “People”

Using Send Anywhere:

NOTE: Send Anywhere is another third party app you can use for sharing your iPhone contacts. The app is available on Android and iOS and uses a peer-2-peer connection to share contacts, cross-platform, without requiring a computer.

1. Go to the App Store and install “Send Anywhere” on the iPhone
2. Install the same app on the HTC device from the Play Store
3. Open the app on both smartphones
4. On the iPhone, tap “Send” > “Contacts” and select the contacts you want to share
5. Tap “Send” and lastly, select the desired transfer method on one of the phones and follow the on-screen steps to complete the process
