How to separate google contacts on 2 different phones?

A

AC Question

my husband recently got a smartphone and store used my gmail account to set it up. Now all my contacts (many) are on his phone and he only wants a few. What is the most efficient way to deal with this without me losing all my contacts on my device?

Welcome to the forums!

Set him up a Google account with the contacts he wants.

Go to settings, accounts, tap on your account, then remove your account.

The gp back to settings, account and add account, choose a Google and add his.
