VCF to Excel — Your Contacts as a Spreadsheet

Turn a .vcf contacts export from iPhone, Android, iCloud or Google into an Excel sheet or CSV — Korean and accented names intact, phone numbers kept exactly. Never uploaded.

iPhone · Android · iCloud · Google · every number kept exactly

Your contacts are read in your own browser — they are never uploaded.

An address book is other people's names, phone numbers, addresses and birthdays. Here it is read inside this tab, on your computer or phone, and the Excel and CSV files are made here too. There is no server step, so no copy of anyone's details ends up on another machine, and there is no account to create. Check it rather than trust it: open your browser's developer tools, switch to the Network tab, and convert a file — no request carries it.

VCF to Excel — Your Contacts as a Spreadsheet

When you export contacts from an iPhone, an Android phone, iCloud or Google Contacts, you get a .vcf file: a vCard, the standard every phone understands and no spreadsheet does. This converter reads it in your browser and turns it into an Excel sheet or a CSV, one contact per row and every field in its own column — names, phone numbers with their labels, emails, addresses, company, birthday, notes. It also fixes what usually goes wrong: Android writes Korean, Japanese and accented names in an encoded form that comes out as gibberish elsewhere, older phones save files in legacy character sets, iPhone hides custom labels on separate lines, and Excel quietly strips the leading 0 or + from phone numbers. Here every number is kept exactly as it was. Contacts that share a phone number or email — what you get after merging two phones — are flagged, and contact photos can be saved as files. A contacts file is other people’s personal information, so it is read entirely on your device and never uploaded.

Every Field, Its Own Column

Mobile, home and work numbers, emails, addresses, company, birthday and notes — each in a labelled column, ready to sort and filter.

Names and Numbers Intact

Korean, Japanese and accented names decoded correctly from every phone, and phone numbers kept with their leading 0 or +.

Duplicates Flagged

Contacts that share a phone number or email are marked — the clean-up you need after combining two phones.

Never Uploaded

Your contacts are other people’s details. They are read in your browser and never sent anywhere — and you can check.

!How It Works, Step by Step

1

Export your contacts as a .vcf file from your iPhone, Android phone, iCloud.com or Google Contacts.

2

Drop the .vcf file here — or several, to combine them. It is read in your browser; nothing is uploaded.

3

Check the list: search it, and look at any contacts flagged as possible duplicates.

4

Download Excel (.xlsx) or a CSV that Excel opens correctly, and the contact photos if you want them.

Technical FAQ

How do I convert a VCF file to Excel?
Drop the .vcf file onto this page and click Excel (.xlsx). Each contact becomes one row, and each field — name, every phone number with its label, emails, addresses, company, birthday, notes — gets its own column. The file is read and converted in your browser, so nothing is uploaded, and the result opens in Excel, Google Sheets, Numbers or LibreOffice.
How do I export my iPhone contacts to Excel?
First get a .vcf file out of the phone. On iOS 16 or later, open the Contacts app, tap Lists, touch and hold the list you want (for example All Contacts), and choose Export. On a computer, sign in at iCloud.com, open Contacts, select all, and choose Export vCard. Then drop that .vcf file here and download it as Excel.
How do I export Android or Samsung contacts to Excel?
In the Google Contacts app, open Fix & manage and choose Export to file; on a Samsung phone, open Contacts, then Manage contacts, then Import or export contacts, and choose Export. Either way you get a .vcf file. Drop it here and download Excel or CSV. Android writes non-English names in an encoded form, which this converter decodes correctly.
Why do the names in my VCF file look like =ED=99=8D…?
That is quoted-printable encoding: Android exports vCard 2.1, which stores each byte of a non-English name as an equals sign and two hexadecimal digits. Programs that do not decode it show the raw codes. This converter decodes them, using the character set the file declares, and falls back to detecting it — which also covers older phones that saved the whole file in a Korean or Japanese legacy encoding.
Why does Excel drop the 0 at the start of phone numbers?
When Excel opens a CSV it guesses that a column of digits is a number, and numbers have no leading zeros or plus signs, so 01012345678 becomes 1012345678. The Excel file made here stores every phone number as text, so nothing is lost. If you use the CSV instead, import it through Data › From Text/CSV and set the phone columns to Text.
Is it safe to upload my contacts to a converter?
Here nothing is uploaded at all: the file is read and converted in your browser, on your device. That matters more for contacts than for most files, because they are other people’s names, numbers and addresses. You can verify it by opening the Network tab in your browser’s developer tools while you convert — no request carries the file.
Can it find duplicate contacts?
Yes. Contacts that share a phone number or an email address are flagged as possible duplicates, which is what usually happens after combining an iPhone and an Android phone, or iCloud and Google. Numbers are compared on their final digits, so +82 10-1234-5678 and 010-1234-5678 match. Tick Only possible duplicates to review them; the converter flags them but does not merge anything.
Are contact photos included?
Photos are not placed in the spreadsheet, but if your file contains them you can save them all at once as a ZIP of image files, each named after its contact. They are shown as small pictures in the list on this page.
