iPhone to Pixel: missing contacts

[chawke]

2 issues relating to missing contacts on my Pixel:

1. After switching from iPhone to Pixel in which I used the steps at https://support.google.com/pixelphone/answer/7129740?hl=en, I saw that a few contacts appeared to be unaccounted for in the transfer.

2. I planned to compare exports of the iPhone and Pixel contacts to see which contacts were missing, but the vcf export of the Pixel contacts (exported via Contacts app > Settings > Export) are missing many contacts (hundreds, although seemingly on the phone).

Any advice?

So issue #2 actually seems false as I initially applied the wrong filtering.

There were a few other weird discrepancies during the comparison attempts, but ultimately I did not find the reason for the single-digit difference in the contacts count between iPhone and Pixel or even solid evidence of missing contacts, so have decided at this stage it's not worth further time investment.

Hi, sometimes exporting from one platform such as iphone to the other Android some things could get lost , I would just add the 2 missing to your Google account on the pixel so you'll have back up with the others .

That's the thing, I don't know which contacts are missing (if any; did not find evidence based on my comparison attempt).

Maybe use Google drive on the iphone then use that same Google drive account on the pixel then they shoud be there
