How do I import contacts to iPhone?
Importing contacts to an iPhone is a simple and straightforward process that can be done in a few different ways. One common method involves syncing your contacts with your iCloud account. To do this, go to your iPhone’s Settings app, select your iCloud account, and make sure the "Contacts" option is turned on. Then, log in to iCloud.com on your computer, select "Contacts," and click the gear icon in the lower-left corner to choose "Import vCard" or "Import CSV" and select the file containing your contacts. Your iPhone should then automatically sync those contacts from your iCloud account.
Another way to import contacts is to use a third-party app, such as Google Contacts or Microsoft Outlook, which have their own import/export options that can be used to transfer contacts from one device to another.

This method can be time-consuming, especially if you have a large number of contacts to add, but it is still an option if you prefer to do things that way.
