How to Sync/Store Your Contacts to Google.

With the rate at which new phones are
released, people tend to change their devices
from time to time. An average smartphone
user changes his device at least one time a
year. Some get new mobiles two to four
times a year.

Also, some phone crashes and data get lost.

With Google Contacts, you don’t need to go
through the hassle of getting backup
services again to have your contacts online.
Google does all the work for you while you
sit back. Contacts saved on the Google
Account are automatically synced to the
Google server and you can always access
them online and get them to your new
smartphones easily.
