About Portover: Contacts Backup
Portover turns the contacts on your phone into a standard backup file you own — ready for a new phone, a new SIM, or just peace of mind.
It reads. It never writes. Portover cannot add, edit or delete a single contact on your device, and it does not ask for any permission that would let it.
FREE, WITH NO LIMITS
- Back up every contact to a .vcf (vCard) file — no contact limit, no watermark, no locked pages
- Save the file to your Downloads folder
- Send it to a new phone any way you like — Quick Share, Bluetooth, a cable, a cloud drive, email. You pick; Portover simply hands the file to Android's share sheet
- Restore from a file — choose a .vcf and Portover passes it to your phone's own Contacts importer
- A contact health summary: how many duplicate records you have, and how many contacts have no way to reach them
MOVING TO A NEW PHONE, IN THREE STEPS
1. Back up here.
2. Tap Send and choose how it travels.
3. On the new phone, open the .vcf file. Android imports it directly — Portover does not need to be installed there.
The file is a plain vCard, so it also opens on iPhone, Windows, macOS, Google Contacts and Outlook. No lock-in: the backup is yours, in a format everyone reads.
PORTOVER PRO
- Duplicate report — see which records repeat and exactly which rule matched them: same number, same email address or same full name
- Clean backup — a new file with the duplicates left out, keeping the fullest record of each person. Your phone is never modified; you simply arrive on the new one tidy
- Calendar backup — your events as a standard .ics file that any calendar app can read
- App checklist — what is installed here, as a spreadsheet with a Play Store link for each, so nothing is forgotten on the new phone
- Back up chosen accounts only — Google, SIM or device
- Spreadsheet export — contacts as .csv for Excel, Numbers or Google Sheets
- Backup vault — keep every backup you have made, not only the most recent one
- Backup inspector — open any .vcf file, from Portover or anywhere else, and see exactly what is inside before you import it
HONEST BY DESIGN
- Portover's own code makes no network requests and there is no server behind it. Turn on airplane mode and everything except starting a subscription works exactly the same.
- No account, no sign-up, no email address, no advertising ID.
- No ads, no analytics, no crash reporting, no third-party trackers.
- Two permissions, both read-only: Contacts, to build the backup file, and Calendar, only if you use calendar backups. Nothing else.
- Messages and call history are never touched. Portover does not ask for those permissions and does not back them up.
- Backup files stay in the app's private storage until you delete them, or hand them somewhere yourself.
