Having your contacts synced among all of your devices enables you to access your contacts at any time. If you own an Apple device and use Gmail, it might be a good idea to use Google Contacts. It can sync with any platform, thus enabling you to have your contacts on any device, regardless of the operating system.

Considering we use contacts every day, it’s surprising how nuanced the process of syncing iPhone contacts to Gmail can be. To start, it’s important to examine what happens to new contacts.

By default, your iPhone will save all newly created contacts in your iCloud account. However, you can change the setting so that every time you create a new entry, it instead syncs with your Google account.
Visit www.google.com/contacts. Log in with your Google ID. Click on “More” and click on the “Import” option that appears. Choose the VCard file that has already been downloaded onto your PC. This is the same VCard that has been downloaded from iCloud.

Things to Remember – You need to ensure that your Google account has been offered permission to sync contacts on the Android device. If you’re not clear on what to do, a short set of instructions that let you allow sync access to Google has also been included in this guide.
