    Sync iPhone Contacts via iTunes:

    NOTE: You can use iTunes on a computer with an active Internet connection to sync your iPhone contacts with a Google account. You can then sync the account data, including contacts, with the HTC Desire 630.

    1. Open iTunes on the PC
    2. Connect the iPhone to your computer using the Lightning cable
    3. In iTunes, click the iPhone and access the “Info” section
    4. Enable “Sync Contacts With” and select “Google Contacts”
    5. Sign in with your Google account. Alternatively, you can 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 HTC device, sign in with the same Google account used in iTunes, and allow the account to sync contacts with your phone

    Share Contacts via iCloud Backup:

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

    1. On the computer, open the Internet browser
    2. Visit https://www.icloud.com/
    3. Sign in with your iCloud account and go to “Contacts”
    4. Select the contacts you want to share
    5. Click “Settings” > “Export vCard”
    6. Once the vCard has been downloaded on the computer, you can perform one of the following steps:
      • Import the vCard to “Google Contacts”
      • Connect the HTC Desire 630 to your computer via USB, copy the vCard to the phone storage, and import it to your phonebook via “People”

    Using “My Contacts Backup”:

    NOTE: The methods above require a computer with Internet access, however, you can also transfer your contacts using third party applications. My Contacts Backup is an app for iOS that can be used to back up and transfer iPhone contacts via email.

    1. Open the App Store and install “My Contacts Backup” on the iPhone
    2. Open the application
    3. Tap “Backup” and wait for the vCard file to be created
    4. Tap “Email”
    5. Compose a new email and make sure the vCard is attached
    6. Send the email to your Gmail address and switch to the HTC Desire 630
    7. Open the email on the HTC device and download the attached vCard
    8. Use “People” to import the vCard to your phonebook

    Via “Send Anywhere”:

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

    1. Go to the App Store and install “My Contacts Backup” on the iPhone
    2. Visit the Play Store and install the same app on the Desire 630
    3. Launch the application on both smartphones
    4. On the iPhone, tap “Send” > “Contacts”
    5. Select the desired contacts and tap “Send”
    6. Choose the desired transfer method. You can tap “Generate QR Code” on the iPhone and scan the code with the HTC phone’s camera, or tap “Receive” on the HTC device and enter the transfer code generated on the iPhone
