Nice! Great! I Love u

It would be easy to restore the deleted contacts in iTunes or iCloud backup if you deleted them by mistake. But in this way, you are not allowed to recover the specific one you need but to restore the whole backup file. However, there is another better way to recover those deleted contacts, which is using the iPhone Data Recovery tool from FORecovery for help. It can assist you selectively recover the lost files even without any backup. Detailed introductions can be found in how to recover deleted contacts from iPhone.

Recover Deleted Contacts from iPhone
Find deleted contacts with iCloud if you have ever backed up before:
1. Go to iCloud official site and log in your iCloud account.
2. Click Contacts and see whether the contacts you need are visible here.
Restore iPhone contacts from iCloud:
1. Launch the Settings app on your iPhone. Tap on "iCloud" and see whether Contacts is turned on. If it's already on, turn it off.
2. Tap "Keep on My iPhone" when your iPhone asks what would you like to do with the previously synced iCloud contacts on your iPhone.
3. Then turn on Contacts again and tap "Merge". iPhone will take a little while to download your iCloud contacts.
For users who are not used to backing up iPhone with iCloud, to find a special tool to directly recover from iPhone may be a better choice, what I know about this type of tool is imyfone d-back, but I have not tried with this tool yet.

Can you do this in android?

Can I restore whatsapp conversations from an older backup on google drive?

I had to send my main phone off for repair. I turned on my spare phone and it automatically backed up whatsapp with old conversations. Now my main phone is repaired and back with me, the only conversations that backup from my google drive are the old ones from my spare phone.
Whatsapp says that the last backup was only 11mb, yet when I check google drive my hidden app data is closer to 40mb.
Is there any way I can restore to a whatsapp backup on google drive from 1 week ago, when I was last using my main phone?
Thanks for any help.

How to transfer all contacts from iPhone to Android

Solution 1: The easiest way to transfer all the iPhone contacts to Android is by using an iOS to Android data transfer tool like PanFone Mobile Data Transfer. It gives you the ability to transfer all your data including photos, messages, call history, photos, videos and more from one device to another with a single click. This program is compatible with every leading Android and iPhone model. You can transfer your data from iPhone to Android and vice-versa. It supports the newest Samsung Galaxy S10, iPhone XS.
PanFone Mobile Data Transfer can offer other features as well. It can restore iTunes and iCloud data to devices conveniently as well as backup your phone data and restore later:
1. Transfer files between Android and iOS, including contacts, photos, music, SMS, and more.
2. Backup phone data and restore in lossless quality.
3. Recover iTunes/iCloud backup to iOS or Android devices.
4. Sync media files from iTunes Library to devices.
Solution 2: You can also choose to migrate your contacts from iPhone to Android without computer. You can also use your Google account to sync and transfer all your contacts from iPhone to Android phone.
Step 1: Go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Add Account under the Settings menu of your iPhone and tap on “Google”.
Step 2: Sign-in with your Google account and grant your phone the needed permissions to access your Gmail data.
Step 3: Now, you can go back to your Google account from here and turn on the sync option for “Contacts”.
Step 4: Once your contacts are synced with your Google account, you can easily access them on any Android device. You can use the Google Contacts app or simply use the same account to set up your device for auto-sync of contacts.

Just sync contacts with sim card and then move it to new Android device, it's the easiest and fastest way.
Also,you can use iCloud/iTunes/contact app to do this.

Also think a copy/clone app should suffice...

Did I hear that using the icloud.com option through pc and then later connect the android phone, do this works?

Using google contacts is probably the easiest option, especially if you want to keep your contacts in sync across multiple devices.

yes, that works for me.

Is there an open source software solution to export iphone contacts to a .vcf file? Getting stuck in the Apple ecosystem without using iCloud seems to be an impossible situation.

Can I manually retrieve data from Google Drive Android phone backup (to PC) ?

Scenario: My Galaxy S8 died completely about a month ago, I got an iPhone - still getting used to it, spent incredible amount of time tuning and tweaking the settings.
Today I've noticed I still have the backup from my Galaxy S8 in my Google Drive account and it seems I still should be able to import that data to my new phone. There are some valuable information for me, especially contacts (in call history, not synced with Google), text messages, whatsapp messages etc.
I however don't have another Android phone to sync it and then somehow export it, also I probably won't be able to do it on my iPhone - I am logged in to that account but somehow can't find a way to import such data. (All of my Google synced contacts for example got imported automatically, but not the rest).
Is there a way to somehow manually download that backup data from Google Drive to PC and "unpack" it?
Thanks.

This might help if you can use the import option to import your backup directly from Google drive then transfer it to iOS. Or maybe you can transfer the backup from Google drive then use 7zip or similar software to extract the backup into its separate parts and import/transfer them from your PC to iOS.

The various tools in that software may help you but you may not be able to do it all in with "one shot", you may have to attack from different angles using more than one option, function or tool provided by this software.
Or, another possible option is to install an android emulator on your PC, install Android in it, then sign into your Google account in the android running in the emulator, restore the backup from Google drive in the Android running in the emulator then see if you can transfer the data from the emulated android to iOS

@TinoArts
take note that whenever you backup Android phone to Google, all your data is safely stored in an encrypted backup file over your Google Drive account.
