This might be better described as "No Import/export to/from files". I'd certainly like VCF import.
Workaround: see http://askubuntu.com/q/360466/7808 ** Summary changed: - No access to contacts on File + No import/export to/from files -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to address-book-app in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1331348 Title: No import/export to/from files Status in address-book-app package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Hi, There are no option to sync contact for a human being form the Contacts apps, from a backup file (xml,vcf,…?). This need comes from that many users of Ubuntu might be moving from Android or other famous OS on phone; these OS not always give the option to sync contact on SIM, but on an file on the SDCARD, so Ubuntu (address-book-app) should provide a way to import these backups. Steps : * Launch contacts * no option to sync, import/export contact are found on the interface (only a search option and a + option) * swipe from down to access the + menu, users might expect to add manually contact here, no more option like importing contacts from file. * To be sure I checked in the system settings, no import option found there User should be able to add contact from his backup on SDCARD (no one want to import hundreds of contacts manually).
