Bug description:
Hi,
There are no option to sync contact for a human being form the
Contacts apps, from a backup file (xml,vcf,…?). This need comes from
that many users of Ubuntu might be moving from Android or other famous
OS on phone; these OS not always give the option to sync contact on
SIM, but on an file on the SDCARD, so Ubuntu (address-book-app) should
provide a way to import these backups.
Steps :
* Launch contacts
* no option to sync, import/export contact are found on the interface (only
a search option and a + option)
* swipe from down to access the + menu, users might expect to add manually
contact here, no more option like importing contacts from file.
* To be sure I checked in the system settings, no import option found there
User should be able to add contact from his backup on SDCARD (no one
want to import hundreds of contacts manually).
