Here’s a list of 5 contact backup apps for Android which you can use to backup contacts that you have saved on your Android device. Losing contact information is very annoying. People usually make the mistake of saving contacts into their phone, not their SIM cards, so when they switch phones, they lose their contact information. A backup app can help you keep backups so you don’t lose important contact info ever again.
Let’s look at these apps one by one.
Super Backup : SMS & Contacts
Super Backup : SMS & Contacts backup up not just contacts, but also SMS messages, apps, call logs, calendars, bookmarks, anything and everything basically.
By default backups are saved to the SD card, but once that a backup has been made you’ll be given an option to upload it to Google Drive or your Gmail account for safe keeping. Format used for contact backups is VCF.

Contacts Backup by Rockstar Developers
Contacts Backup by Rockstar Developers offers only cloud contact backups. To do this, to backup your contacts to the cloud using Contacts Backup you’ll need to register an account with Contacts Backup.
Contacts are saved to the cloud server of the app itself. That’s from where they can also be restored. If you switch to a new device or you lose contacts for some reason, just login to your Contacts Backup account and tap on restore.
