How to get a vCard (.vcf file) into Android contacts from website

Question

I\'m trying to add a vCard from a web link to the user\'s contact list on Android 2.2. When I direct the user to .vcf file, all I get is text output in the mobile browser.

Answer 1

AFAIK Android doesn't support vCard files out of the Box at least not until 2.2.

You could use the app vCardIO to read vcf files from your SD card and save to you contacts. So you have to save them on your SD card in the first place and import them afterwards.

vCardIO is also available trough the market.
