This happens because CSV files only carry basic text data, so contact photos are ignored during import on Android and iOS. To import photos offline, contacts must be in vCard (VCF) format, which supports images and detailed fields. A practical way is to convert the CSV file into VCF using a dedicated offline contact migration tool. As per my knowledge, many users are now using this expert Windows-based Softaken CSV to VCF conversion tool, which works independently, and there is no need for technical skills or internet access to operate this software. Once converted, the VCF file can be imported directly into Android or iOS, and contact photos show up correctly without any internet or cloud sync. You can test this application with a free version.
