    Sync iPhone Contacts via iTunes:

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

    1. Open iTunes on the computer
    2. Connect the iPhone to the PC via USB
    3. Click the iPhone in iTunes and go to “Info”
    4. Enable “Sync Contacts With”
    5. Select “Google Contacts” from the drop-down menu
    6. Sign in with your Google account or click “Configure” and select an existing account
    7. Click “Apply” to start the sync
    8. After the sync is done, switch to the Galaxy Note FE and register the same Google account
    9. Set the account so that it can sync contacts with your Android phone

    Share iPhone Contacts from iCloud Backup:

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

    1. Open the Internet browser on the computer
    2. Visit https://www.icloud.com/ and sign in with your iCloud account
    3. Click “Contacts” and select the desired contacts
    4. Click “Settings” > “Export vCard”
    5. Wait for the vCard to be downloaded and perform one of the following steps:
      • Open the Internet browser on the PC and import the vCard to “Google Contacts”, or:
      • Connect the Samsung device to your computer via USB, transfer the vCard to the phone storage and import it to your phonebook using “Contacts”

    Using “My Contacts Backup”:

    NOTE: While the methods above require a computer with Internet access, alternatively you can transfer your iPhone contacts via third party applications. My Contacts Backup is an iOS app that can back up and share 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 backup file to be done and tap “Email”
    4. Ensure the vCard backup file is attached to the email and send it to your own address
    5. On the Samsung device, open the email and download the vCard attachment
    6. Use “Contacts” to import the vCard to your phonebook

    Using “Send Anywhere”:

    NOTE: Send Anywhere is another third party app you can use for contact transfer. The app is available on iOS and Android and uses a peer-2-peer connection to share contacts and other file types cross-platform, without requiring computer access.

    1. Go to the App Store and install “Send Anywhere” on the iPhone
    2. Launch the Google Play Store and install the same app on the Android phone
    3. Open the app on both smartphones
    4. On the iPhone, tap “Send” > “Contacts”
    5. Select the contacts you want to share and tap “Send”
    6. Lastly, select a transfer method on one of the phones and follow the on-screen prompts to complete the process
