    Sync iPhone Contacts via iTunes:

    NOTE: Using iTunes on a computer connected to the Internet, you can sync the contacts on your iPhone with your Google account, and you can then re-sync the account data with the Kyocera device.

    1. Launch iTunes on the computer
    2. Connect the iPhone to the computer using the Lightning cable
    3. Once connected, click the iPhone in iTunes
    4. Access the “Info” section and enable “Sync Contacts With”
    5. Select “Google Contacts” from the drop-down menu
    6. Sign in with your Google account in iTunes, or alternatively, click “Configure” and select an existing account
    7. Click “Apply” to start the sync
    8. Once the sync is done, register the same Google account on the Kyocera Hydro Reach and allow it to sync contacts with your Android phone

    Share iPhone Contacts from iCloud:

    NOTE: If your iPhone contacts have been backed up on your iCloud account, you can access the account on a computer connected to the Internet, and export the contacts in a vCard file for use on the Android phone.

    1. Launch the Internet browser on the computer
    2. Head down to https://www.icloud.com/
    3. Sign in with your iCloud account and go to “Contacts”
    4. Select the desired contacts and click “Settings” > “Export vCard”
    5. Follow one of the steps below:
      • Wait for the vCard to be downloaded on the computer and import it to “Google Contacts” using the Internet browser, or:
      • Connect the Kyocera Hydro Reach to your computer via USB, transfer the vCard to the phone storage, and use “Contacts” to import it to your phonebook

    Using “My Contacts Backup”:

    NOTE: While the methods above require a computer connected to the Internet, alternatively you can use third party applications to share your iPhone contacts. My Contacts Backup is an iOS apps that can back up and transfer iPhone contacts via email.

    1. Launch the App Store and install “My Contacts Backup” on the iPhone
    2. Open the app and tap “Backup”
    3. Wait for the vCard file to be done and tap “Email”
    4. Compose a new email ensuring the vCard is attached
    5. Send the email and vCard attachment to your own address
    6. Switch to the Kyocera phone and open the email
    7. Download the vCard attachment and import it to your phonebook using “Contacts”

    Using “Send Anywhere”:

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

    1. Go to the App Store and install “Send Anywhere” on the iPhone
    2. Open the Google Play Store and install the same app on the Kyocera Hydro Reach
    3. Launch the app on both smartphones
    4. On the iPhone, tap "Send" > “Contacts” and select the contacts you want to share
    5. Tap “Send” and select the desired transfer method, such as “Generate QR Code” on the iPhone or “Receive” on the Kyocera device
    6. Follow the on-screen prompts to complete the transfer
