vCardIO is a tool to import/export contacts from/to a vCard (vcf) file on the sdcard. The vCard parser is based on Funambol code.

The currently supported vCard version is 2.1 (for both import and export). Currently supported fields are phones, contact methods and photos. vCardIO does not sync contact data, however it can remember previously exported or imported contacts and either completely replace them or ignore them on import.

Usage

To export contacts

The name of the file to which contacts will be exported is in the text field next to the Export to button (the default is /sdcard/backup.vcf). Edit the filename if necessary, then press the Export to button. The application may take a long time if there are many contacts (currently there is no way to specify a subset of the contacts).

To import contacts

The name of the file from which contacts will be imported is in the text field next to the Import from button (the default is /sdcard/contacts.vcf). Edit the filename if necessary, then press the Import from button. The application may take a long time if there are many contacts.

vCardIO uses the X-IRMC-LUID vCard field as a unique ID for contacts (it keeps a database mapping this id to the phone's internal contact id). By default, import will not replace or re-add contacts whose ID already appears in the database (to prevent contacts from appearing multiple times). If Replace existing contacts is checked, import will completely replace phone and contact method information for existing contacts.
