Top 10 Contact Backup App Options for Android and iOS

This is an app that makes backing up your contacts as easy as the name suggests, with a simple one-click system that can export your contact lists to another device, to email or Excel, as well as a range of other applications. Your contacts will also be backed up to a dedicated cloud and can be easily transferred between your accounts. Available in 15 different languages, Easy Backup has an average rating of 4.6 out of 5.0 from over 27,000 reviews in the Google Store!

You can enjoy up to 1GB of storage with the free version, and so you can back up your whole device – including photos and games. Choose whether you want to back up to the cloud, thus increasing your storage space, or via another hosting device such as another smartphone, a computer, an SD card, and so on.

You can back-up your contacts and data to an SD card and other smartphones – even when they aren’t on the same network. And a feature we particularly like is that you can schedule routine backups at a time to suit you; there’s no need to manually order the app into action.

You can back-up contacts, apps, texts, and calendars to your SD card, Google Drive or Gmail account and share APK files with one tap of a button.

In addition, the app allows you to browse your app’s data using Titanium and schedule backups without needing to close down any other applications you might be currently using. Available in 32 different languages, Titanium is a solid choice for those with rooted Android devices.

The process can take place offline too, so you don’t need to rely on WiFi connections to ensure a reliable connection when syncing and backing up. The app doesn’t offer much else in terms of storing and securing apps, photos and other mediums, but as simple contact backup goes this does the job in style.

Simply make a back-up, export the .vcf file and you’re good to go: your whole address book will wing its way to your Drive folder. This is one of the most intuitive contact backup apps around, with an easy-to-navigate interface and sensible layout.

With one click, your contacts book will be sent to your chosen destination – be it the cloud, an email address or an external storage device. The app is available on the vast majority of Android handsets too, including older generation models.

This intuitive app is simple to use: simply select your contacts list, hit the 'backup' button and watch on as the power bar indicates when all of your numbers have been copied across. It’s easy then to email the contacts list to yourself in your chosen file type.

This app will sync your device to a live Google account, so it’s only available to users of Google Drive and the cloud. It offers plenty of functionality, including the ability to merge, delete and manage duplicate contacts.
