iPhone and Android are two different operating systems that also back up their data on different cloud services. iPhone backs up its user's data on iCloud, whereas Android backs up on Google Drive.

Hence their cloud data can't be restored on another device; for example, iCloud's backup data can't be restored on an Android, and Google Drive's backup data can't be restored on an iPhone.

But a third-party mobile transfer tool can do that. Apart from contacts, you can also transfer photos and videos from Android to iPhone. Music, apps, documents are also supported by this way. Once you transfer all your data, you are able to back up iPhone.

Try this third-party tool to transfer contacts from your Android phone to your iPhone 8 Plus now.
