Contacts are so important that we can’t lose. When our contacts get lost, we will recover them via Android data recovery software for sure. Likewise, as we get a new Android phone, we would like to get contacts moved from the old phone to the new one. How to easily transfer them?
If you just want to transfer contacts from Android to Android, you’ll need no 3rd party utilities or cloud services for that.On the "old device":
- open your contacts app
- enter its menu
- select Export/Import
- select to export to SD card
On the new device:
- open your contacts app
- enter its menu
- select Export/Import
- select to import from SD card
- chose the file you've just copied here
However, except contacts, I believe that you might need to transfer other files like SMS, call logs, calendars, music, videos, photos and even favorite apps to the new smartphone, then you’d better try a professional Mobile Transfer program, which can transfer the files from Android to Android, iPhone to Android, iTunes to Android or Android to iPhone, iTunes to iPhone, iPhone to iPhone.
TUTORIAL:
Step 1. Start the Mobile Transfer
