    Sync iPhone Contacts via iTunes:

    NOTE: You can use iTunes on a computer connected to the Internet to sync the contacts on your iPhone with your Google account. You can then sync the account data and contacts with the BlackBerry device.

    1. Connect the iPhone to the computer via USB
    2. Open iTunes and click the iPhone
    3. Access “Info” and enable “Sync Contacts With”
    4. Select “Google Contacts” from the drop-down menu
    5. Sign in with your Google account or click “Configure” and select an existing account
    6. Click “Apply” to begin the sync
    7. Once done, switch to the Android device and sign in with the same Google account used in iTunes
    8. Allow the account to sync contacts with the phone

    Share iPhone Contacts from iCloud Backup:

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

    1. Open the Internet browser on the computer
    2. Head down to https://www.icloud.com/
    3. Log in with your iCloud account
    4. Go to “Contacts”
    5. Select the desired contacts and click “Settings” > “Export vCard”
    6. Once the vCard has been downloaded, follow one of the steps below:
      • Launch the Internet browser on the computer and import the vCard to “Google Contacts” or:
      • Connect the Android device to the computer via USB, transfer the vCard to the phone storage and import the vCard to the phonebook using “Contacts”

    Using “My Contacts Backup”:

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

    1. Visit the App Store and install “My Contacts Backup” on the iPhone
    2. Open the app and tap “Backup”
    3. After the backup is done, tap “Email”
    4. Make sure the vCard is attached and send the email to your own address
    5. Switch to the Android phone and open the email
    6. Download the vCard attachment
    7. Use “Contacts” to import the vCard to your phonebook

    Using “Send Anywhere”:

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

    1. Go to the Play Store and install Send Anywhere on the Android device
    2. Visit the App Store and install the same app on the iPhone
    3. Launch the app on both devices
    4. On the iPhone, tap “Send” > “Contacts”
    5. Select the desired contacts and tap “Send”
    6. Select a transfer method and follow the on-screen stops to complete the process
