  • Hello forum members, I need some guidance regarding a contact management issue. I have a single VCF file that contains many contacts, and I want to split them into separate files for backup and sharing purposes. When I try to import this file into Gmail or my phone, it either imports everything together or shows errors. I searched for manual ways to split VCF file content, but the process looks complicated and risky. I don’t want to lose any important information. Can anyone suggest a practical and safe method to split VCF contacts without spending hours on manual work?

  • Hey,
    This​‍​‌‍​‍‌ can be difficult when dealing with large contact lists, and you have possibly faced it also. Many manual approaches do not go like clockwork because the VCF format has to remain in a good order. I was the one who tackled this problem by using DataVare Split vCard Software, which finally made the whole process very easy. I could do nothing personally, but the tool automatically cut the VCF files into pieces and saved each contact as a separate file. This is what made my contacts easy to manage and share.

    Highlighted below are the most essential points based on what I have gone through:

    The fastest way to divide a VCF file into multiple parts.

    Guaranteed retention of the initial values of the contact fields.

    A significant reduction in the time consumption compared to the manual methods.

    Works well even to separate large VCF files without any problems  

    If you need a reliable and free way of splitting a VCF file or if a free VCF splitter-style solution that you feel safe with sounds good to you, then this is the one to go ​‍​‌‍​‍‌for.
