Export your contacts

Export from your iPhone

1. Open Contacts and tap "Lists" in the top-left corner.
2. Touch and hold "All Contacts", then choose Export.
3. Save the .vcf to Files, or AirDrop it to the device you import on.

Export from your Mac or iCloud

1. In Contacts, select "All Contacts" and press Command-A.
2. Choose File > Export > Export vCard.
3. On icloud.com/contacts, select all, then open the "..." menu and choose "Export vCard".

Export from Android or Google Contacts

1. In the Google Contacts app, tap "Fix & manage" > "Export to file".
2. On contacts.google.com, choose Export, then pick "vCard (for iOS Contacts)".
3. On a Samsung phone, open Contacts > Manage contacts > Import or export contacts > Export.

Pick vCard, not CSV

Google offers two CSV formats next to vCard. The importer reads only .vcf files, so a CSV does not show up in the file picker. Export again and pick vCard.

What comes across

Every card in the file comes across: names, phones, email addresses, postal addresses, birthdays and other dates, websites, social profiles and notes. Your own labels stay as you typed them, so "Mum's work line" stays "Mum's work line".

A photo inside the file comes across. A photo that is only a web link stays a link, and nothing is downloaded. When the photos do not fit in your storage, the contacts still import and the photos stay out.

Import the same file again at any time

A second import skips the people you already have. It matches each card by its ID, then by name plus a shared phone number, then by a shared email address. Contacts you already saved are not changed, so your edits here stay safe.

Import into PrivacyNotes

1. Open PrivacyNotes and go to Settings > Import & Export.
2. Pick Contacts (vCard) as the source.
3. Drop in the file you just exported, or click to browse.
4. Check what the preview says will arrive, then start the import.

Answer my questions about PrivacyNotes using only its help center, its changelog and its security documentation.

Start here: https://privacynotes.app/llms-index.txt
It lists every question with the page that answers it. Fetch the one or two that match mine.
If you can only make one request, fetch https://privacynotes.app/llms-full.txt instead.
If you cannot fetch a .txt or .md file, read https://privacynotes.app/help, https://privacynotes.app/changelog and https://github.com/LifetimeLabsHQ/PrivacyNotes.app instead.

For what changed, or where something moved, fetch https://privacynotes.app/changelog.md.

For how the encryption works, what the server can read, or how to check any of it yourself, fetch https://privacynotes.app/docs/index.md and follow it to one of the documents it lists. That index is a router: cite the document, never the index.

Rules:
- Use only those pages. If they do not answer something, say so instead of guessing.
- Never invent a feature, a menu path, a price, or a limit.
- End your reply with the "Source:" URL from the page you used, exactly as written.
- Answer in the same language as my question.
- Never ask me for my recovery phrase, my PIN, or the contents of a note.

If no question follows, ask me what I would like to know.
