    Using iTunes:

    NOTE: By using iTunes on a computer with an active Internet connection you can sync your iPhone contacts with your Google account. Once done, you can then sync the account data, including contacts, with the Alcatel Flash 2.

    1. Establish a USB connection between the iPhone and computer
    2. Open iTunes, and click the iPhone to view the device’s summary page
    3. Access the “Info” tab and enable “Sync Contacts With
    4. From the drop-down list, select “Google Contacts
    5. Sign in with your Google account, or alternatively click “Configure” and select an existing account if available
    6. Click “Apply” and wait for the sync to complete
    7. Once done, switch to the Alcatel Flash 2, register the same Google account used in iTunes and allow it to sync contacts with your device

    Using iCloud:

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

    1. Open the Internet browser on the computer
    2. Visit https://www.icloud.com/ and sign in with your account
    3. Access “Contacts” and select the contacts you want to share
    4. Click “Settings” > “Export vCard
    5. Once the vCard file is downloaded on the computer, you can either import it to “Google Contacts” or:
    6. Connect the Alcatel Flash 2 to your PC via USB, copy the vCard file to the phone storage, and use the “Contacts” application to import the file’s contents to your phonebook

    Using “My Contacts Backup”:

    NOTE: While the two methods above rely on a computer with an Internet connection, alternatively you can transfer your iPhone contacts using third party applications. My Contacts Backup can be used to back up, and transfer contacts via email.

    1. Open the App Store and install “My Contacts Backup” on your iPhone
    2. Launch the app and tap “Backup
    3. After the backup file has been created, tap “Email
    4. Write a new email and make sure the vCard file is attached to it
    5. Send the email to your own address
    6. On the Alcatel Flash 2, open the email and download the vCard attachment
    7. Import the vCard to your phonebook using the “Contacts” application

    Using “Send Anywhere”:

    NOTE: Last but not least, Send Anywhere is another third party app for iOS and Android, which uses a peer-to-peer connection to transfer contacts and other file types from one phone to another, even cross platform.

    1. Install “Send Anywhere” on your iPhone via the App Store
    2. On the Flash 2, open the Play Store and install the same app
    3. Launch the app on both smartphones
    4. On the iPhone, tap “Send” > “Contacts
    5. Select the desired contacts and tap “Send
    6. Lastly, select a transfer method, such as “Generate QR Code” or “Receive” etc. and follow the on-screen prompts
