Sure! You can easily do it all from your phone or on a computer. Go to iCloud Contacts. In the middle part of the Contacts page you'll see a circle with three dots, click that and click "Select All Contacts". After that on the right side of the Contacts page you'll see a share button, click that and then save the file.

Next, go to Google Contacts and make sure you're signed into the same Google account that's on your Open. Once you've done that click the left menu button to open the sidebar menu. Click "Import" and select the file you downloaded from iCloud. All of your contacts should pop up on Google Contacts. Check the Contacts app on your Open and they all should sync over within a few seconds. Hope this helps!

I've learned quite recently that CiraSync is great for this sort of thing -- It can resync your GAL contacts to mobile on a schedule, and then everyone in the organization has access to those contacts!

I have the same question. I haven’t set it up yet with our team, but it looks like the easiest solution is to create a shared mailbox. Shared mailboxes can have contacts. If everyone logs in through their phones, then they’ll see all those contacts.

This would be a good addition to Groups, or to implement easy browsing of the Global Address List on mobile.

You might want to check out something like CorpSync—it syncs contacts from Exchange to iPhones, Outlook, and Teams automatically, and keeps them grouped (like staff, vendors, etc.). It also keeps work contacts separate from personal ones, which sounds like what you’re looking for. Could save you from manually sharing cards all the time.

It sounds like you need a central way to manage your contacts. Unfortunately, it's not possible to organize and sync contacts into groups natively. You'll need a third-party tool for that like sync.blue, etc. 

However, it is possible to copy the contacts to a GAL and by syncing the GAL to the iPhones, it would after all be possible to search for them. Consider that the GAL would not be visible in your native contacts app. 

Did you ever check that they were being synced with your Google account? Just because you turned that on originally, doesn’t mean they weren’t being saved locally. I can’t find the “on my phone” setting anymore but a family member is constantly saving contacts to a different account than his Google one and I have merge them every now and then.

They were and maybe still are attached to your original Google account. I sync contacts that way and it isn’t dependent on phone

There's no auto sync function for contacts, at least not yet. Trust me, many of us would really love that. I even pay for EteSync until that exists.

Has there been any progress made in implementing this? It would be nice to have native syncing and being able to access my contacts directly within Android's contacts and dialer rather than trying to find the details within the mail app hamburger menu.

I haven't found a sync, but I did find a workaround. It's a bit cumbersome since it duplicates them, but you can then open Proton on a computer (or I suppose visit the Proton site in a browser) and merge them.

1. Click the hamburger [3-bars] top-left.
2. Find and click Contacts
3. Click the ellipsis [3-dots] top-right.
4. Click Upload Contacts - click Yes
5. Open the browser version to merge identical contacts.

I agree, none contact sync is a dealbreaker for any email service.

Hahahaha funny guy. First requested in 2017. ETA TBC®️

All you need to do is add them like this via the mail app in the settings of iPhone you can import your yahoo account that will allow you to import your contacts and email and notes if you want or just contacts this will save you a headache of doing what all these folks are saying to do take it from a “Apple” guy

Export your yahoo contacts in csv (check formats in yahoo) .. login into iCloud, go to contacts and import. Secondly you can download iCloud format and manually copy paste yahoo contacts from csv and upload. I did it from google to iCloud.. almost 520 contacts

You can sort and clean your contacts using a spreadsheet (import the CSV file) and look, order the names, last names, emails phone numbers.
Finally you can import into the Contacts.

Sounds like the contacts were not syncing, and that you only downloaded the contacts to the phone.

The contacts should NOT be in the phone memory or SIM, but rather saved as Google contacts (or Microsoft Exchange/Outlook, depending on where you want to sync) so that changes sync to the internet server. Also that means sync has to be enabled in the settings.

I configure my devices from the perspective that should I lose my phone I am only out a device (and of course the money for my insurance). as /u/chanchan05 said it is best to store your contacts in either GMail for Outlook. I prefer Outlook as I use the office suite on my PCs. This makes using the outlook app along side my Android mail very simple. Changes made on one platform auto sync to the other.

On my Samsung phone the contacts app has a menu entry "manage contacts" where you can move contacts between accounts. If you have (or create) a WebDav account (e.g. with Nextcloud) and have it sync to your phone e.g. via DAVx5 this account should show up in the contacts, so you can move everything from google to this WebDAV account. But I don't know if moving the contacts is a special function of the Samsung contacts app or just in every android phone... Hope this helps :)

SMS import/export on f-droid. Just been through it that has been the easiest way for me.

Select Share for multiple contacts on your primary phone or before you install Graphene OS. It creates a .vcf export file. Transfer it using any method you prefer. I used Signal Messenger, but Google Drive or other file share/transfer methods. Import the file into GrapheneOS contacts. Simple.
