How Are Contacts Stored Inside a Typical VCF File?
A typical VCF file stores contact data using structured text blocks called vCard entries. Each entry contains fields such as NAME, TEL, EMAIL, PHOTO, ADR, and NOTE. The file uses standard tags to define information, ensuring consistent formatting across devices. Metadata and encoding rules preserve special characters, international numbers, and multi-line addresses. A VCF may store one or hundreds of contacts depending on user preference. Devices reading VCF interpret these tags and display the data in appropriate fields. The format supports attachments such as embedded images or QR codes, providing a complete representation of a contact profile. This organization makes VCF ideal for sharing, syncing, and restoring contact information.
