  7. Download the attached vCard, and use “Contacts” to import it

Using “Send Anywhere”:

NOTE: Another third party application you can use is Send Anywhere, on both iOS and Android platforms. The app uses a peer-2-peer connection to transfer contacts and other file types, cross platform, without requiring a computer.

  1. Go to the App Store and install “Send Anywhere” on the iPhone
  2. From the Google Play Store, install the app on the Alcatel Dawn
