Transfer contacts from iPhone to Android locally, without a cloud

Note to self, next time I manage to convert someone from iOS to Android, this is how it’s done: Sync iPhone to a Mac through iTunes - On Info tab, select “sync contacts” - (Optionally sync contacts to a specific addressbook folder) Export contacts to a vCard file - Open Address Book - Select all contacts (in a folder) - Drag them into desktop - FooBar and 100 others.vcf file gets created Import vCard into Android - In Bluetooth preferences on Mac, pair with the Android device - From Bluetooth menu on the Mac, select the Android phone, “Send file to device…” - Select the vcf file created - On the Android phone, accept the file transfer and import to contacts
