Can i transfer my contacts without using a software?

[Android Central Question]

My screen is broken, and I cannot activate the file transferring. I have copied the files across but cannot find the contacts to save to a new temporary phone while it is repaired

Welcome to Android Central! If you saved your contacts to your Google account, then they would've synced to the cloud -- go to contacts.google.com to see if they're there. If you saved them to the local Phone account, then unfortunately they don't sync anywhere, and you also won't be able to access them, because they're saved to a SQLite database file in a protected system directory. Sorry!
