    Using iTunes:

    NOTE: Using iTunes and a computer with internet access you can sync the contacts on your iPhone with a Google account. Then you can add the account on the ZTE Maven and set it so that it can sync contacts with your Android device.

    1. Launch iTunes on the computer
    2. Connect the iPhone via USB
    3. Once connected, click the “Info” tab in the phone’s summary page
    4. Mark the “Sync Contacts With” check box and select “Google Contacts” from the drop-down menu
    5. Register your Google account or click “Configure” and select an existing one if available
    6. Click “Apply” to begin the sync
    7. Register the same Google account on the ZTE Maven and allow it to sync contacts with your device

    Using iCloud:

    NOTE: If you have used the iCloud backup service on your iPhone before, you should be able to find your contacts stored within your iCloud account. By accessing it on a computer with access to the Internet you can export these contacts as a VCF file

    1. Launch the Internet browser on your computer and visit https://www.icloud.com/
    2. Sign in with your iCloud account and go to “Contacts”
    3. Mark the contacts you want to export and click “Settings”
    4. Click “Export vCard” and wait for the file to be downloaded on the computer
    5. Next up, import the VCF file to “Google Contacts” or alternatively skip this step and instead:
    6. Connect the ZTE Maven to your computer via USB, transfer the VCF file to the phone’s storage, and use the “Contacts” app to import its contents to your phonebook

    Using “My Contacts Backup”:

    NOTE: The following two methods of contact transfer do not require access to a computer. It requires third party apps that can be used for the task. My Contacts Backup is a third party app for iOS that you can use to back up and transfer your contacts via email.

    1. Visit the App Store and install “My Contacts Backup” on your iPhone
    2. Open the app and tap “Backup”
    3. Once the backup file is created, tap “Email” and attach the file to a new email
    4. Send the mail to your own Gmail address
    5. On the ZTE Maven, open the email and download the attached file
    6. Import the file to your phonebook using the “Contacts” application and the “Import” option

    Using Send Anywhere:

    NOTE: Send Anywhere is another third party app that can be used to transfer contacts over a p2p connection, cross-platform and without needing a computer.

    1. Launch the App Store and install “Send Anywhere” on your iPhone
    2. Open the Google Play Store on the ZTE Maven and install the same app on it
    3. Open the app on both smartphones
    4. Tap “Contacts” on the iPhone and select the contacts you want to share
    5. Tap “Send” and select a transfer method. You can tap “Generate QR Code” on the iPhone to scan the resulting code with the ZTE Maven’s camera to begin the transfer. You can also tap “Receive” on the ZTE, and manually enter the transfer code generated on the iPhone
