Connect contacts only
Work with the Google address book used on Android without turning the migration into a general mail or calendar setup guide.
Cloud ContactsSee how it works
Android to iPhone migration
Move your contacts without importing the chaos.
Connect the Google account used on your Android phone, inspect the address book on your iPhone, and decide what should remain in Google Contacts or be added to Apple Contacts.
For people changing phones who want to preserve important contacts without creating another round of duplicates.
iPhone & iPad
Mac
Your Android contacts are usually already in Google Contacts.
Instead of exporting files or copying every record immediately, Cloud Contacts lets you connect the source first. You can then review duplicates, missing details, and ownership before deciding what should land in Apple Contacts.
A controlled phone migration
Review before copying
Find likely duplicates and incomplete records before adding another copy to the iPhone address book.
Choose the destination
Keep Google as the source, copy selected records locally, or add approved contacts to Apple Contacts.
Three steps on your new iPhone
- 1
Install Cloud Contacts
Download the app on the iPhone. You do not need to install a companion app on the old Android phone.
- 2
Connect the Google account
Add the account that stored contacts on Android and allow the contact permissions needed for the workflow.
- 3
Review, clean, and place
Inspect the records first, then choose which approved contacts should appear in Apple Contacts.
Migration without guesswork
Cloud Contacts keeps the original source visible and separates inspection from the decision to copy or write data.
Source remains visible
Google Contacts and Apple Contacts are treated as different address books, not interchangeable labels.
No required export file
Connect the source directly instead of passing a full address book through an intermediate file when that is unnecessary.
Cleanup before placement
Review likely conflicts before deciding what should be added to the system address book.
Questions about this workflow
Do I need my old Android phone?
Usually not if your contacts were synchronized with Google Contacts and you can sign in to that account on the iPhone.
Must I copy every Google contact into Apple Contacts?
No. You can keep Google as the source of truth, inspect records in Cloud Contacts, or choose selected contacts for the Apple address book.
What if contacts already exist on the iPhone?
Review likely duplicates and source ownership before copying. This reduces the chance of creating another parallel record.
Start with the contacts you already have.
Connect a source, review what needs attention, and approve changes with a clear view of ownership.
