Contact files contain other people's personal data (name, phone number, email address). This tool processes the file on your device and sends it nowhere; use the resulting file only for lawful purposes.
01
Why move your contacts into Excel?
The easiest way to see, tidy up or back up the contacts on your phone as a list is to put them into Excel. iPhone and Android phones export contacts as a VCF (vCard) file, but when you open that file directly in Excel you only see unreadable lines.
The Contacts to Excel tool writes each contact in your VCF file on its own row: first name, last name, full name, phone numbers, email addresses, organisation and notes each get their own column. vCard 2.1 exports from Android, vCard 3.0 exports from iPhone and Google Contacts and vCard 4.0 files are supported, and special letters are transferred correctly.
Because contact files contain personal data, the conversion happens entirely in your browser; your file is not sent to our server. You can download the result as Excel (XLSX) or as a semicolon-separated CSV.
02
How to move your contacts into Excel in 3 steps
Export your contacts: Get a .vcf file from Settings > Export in the Android Contacts app, by selecting and sharing contacts on iPhone, or with the “Export” option in Google Contacts.
Choose the file and the format: Drag the VCF file into the area above or select it, choose Excel (XLSX) or CSV and click “Convert”.
Open it in Excel: Open the downloaded file in Excel. Each contact is on its own row; phone numbers are written as text, so a leading 0 or + sign is not lost.
03
When is it useful?
Contacts backup: Keeping the contacts from your phone in a readable table and restoring them when needed.
Tidying up contacts: Finding and fixing duplicate, incomplete or outdated entries easily in Excel.
Announcement lists: Preparing a list from the numbers in your contacts and importing it into an SMS or announcement system.
Changing phones: Checking the contacts on an old phone and preparing the list to move to the new one.
Separating work contacts: Moving work contacts into a separate list based on their organisation and notes.
From Excel back to contacts: Turning the list you edited back into a VCF file with the Excel to Contacts tool.

What is written into Excel?
Columns: First name, last name, full name, up to 5 phone numbers, up to 3 email addresses, organisation, note and group (label) each go into their own column; columns that no contact uses are left out.
Numbers stay as they are in XLSX: In the Excel (XLSX) output, phone numbers are written as text, exactly as in the VCF file, so a leading 0 and the + sign are kept. A CSV file is plain text: when Excel opens it, it may read phone numbers as numeric values and drop the leading 0 and the + sign. Choose XLSX if the numbers must stay exactly as they are in Excel.
Photos are not transferred: Contact photos and similar attachments are not transferred to Excel; the photo data in the file is skipped without being read.
Supported formats: vCard 2.1 (Android exports, including quoted-printable and other character encodings), vCard 3.0 (iPhone, Google Contacts) and vCard 4.0. Up to 20,000 contacts in one file.
CSV option: The CSV output is separated by semicolons and saved as UTF-8 with BOM, so special letters look right in Excel. For safety, cells that Excel could run as a formula get a ' sign in front of them.
Personal data: Contact files contain other people's personal data (name, phone number, email address). This tool processes the file on your device and sends it nowhere; use the resulting file only for lawful purposes.

Privacy and automatic deletion
This tool does not send your file to our server: all processing happens in your browser, on your device. The page is served with a security policy (Content-Security-Policy) that technically prevents the file's contents from being sent anywhere; no analytics or advertising scripts run on this page.
The result file is also created on your device and only you download it. It is cleared from the browser's memory when you close the tab or choose “New file”. Our server keeps no file name or content record of this processing.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I export my Android contacts as a VCF file?
Open the Contacts app, go to the “Export” option in Settings or the menu, and save the .vcf file to the phone's storage. Then upload the file here to turn it into Excel.
How do I get my iPhone contacts as a VCF file?
In the Contacts app on iPhone you can create a .vcf file by selecting a list or contacts and sharing them. On a computer you can also sign in to Contacts on icloud.com, select contacts and export them as vCard.
Does a file exported from Google Contacts work?
Yes. In Google Contacts choose the vCard format under “Export”; the resulting .vcf file is supported directly.
Will the leading 0 of phone numbers be lost?
Not in the XLSX output: numbers are written as text, so the leading 0 and the + sign are kept. If you open the CSV file in Excel, Excel may read the numbers as numeric values and drop the leading 0 and the + sign, so choose XLSX for a list you will use in Excel.
Are contact photos transferred too?
No. An Excel table has no place for photos, so contact photos are not transferred; only the written information goes into the table.
Should I choose XLSX or CSV?
If you will open and edit the list in Excel, XLSX is the most trouble-free choice. If you will upload the list to an SMS or customer management system, you can choose CSV; the CSV file is separated by semicolons and saved as UTF-8 with BOM.
Are my contacts uploaded to a server?
No. The conversion happens entirely in your browser, on your device; your file is not sent to our server and is not stored. The page is served with a security policy that technically prevents the file's content from being sent anywhere, and no analytics or advertising scripts run on this page.
