Let’s break it down. Excel is a flexible editing tool, not a contact format. It treats phone numbers, emails, and names as plain text or numbers with no built-in meaning. vCard, however, is purpose-built for contacts and defines exactly how each field should be stored.
This is where a Softaken Excel to VCF Converter becomes useful. It translates loosely structured spreadsheet data into a standardized vCard file that phones, email clients, and cloud address books recognize instantly. That’s why vCard works smoothly across platforms while Excel files struggle with compatibility.
