Description

Feature Request

It would be nice if *.vcf would be auto detected and there was an offer to import it to the NC contacts. Atm I have to e.g download it via Anrdoid to which detects *.vcf an offers the functionality to import it to the contacts. Afterwards I sync my contacts with NC via CalDAV....
