Importing contacts via .vcf file (e.g. from android phone) loses custom labels for and the default number. I migrated from my samsung galaxy s2 by exporting my contacts to a .vcf file. Some had multiple telephone numbers, each of which I was able to name arbitrarily (e.g. "mobile-old"), I also was able to mark one as the default number, so that if I call that contact or send a text message that number will be used preferentially.

I really liked this feature and wish it was also available in Jolla. It seems such numbers were stored in the .vcf as e.g. TEL;X-Old:+4916316666767 TEL;CELL;PREF:+491575655421 Importing the .vcf into my jolla lost all this "meta" data. It imported the multiple numbers but not the custom name and not which number was default. This seems to be controlled by which number is listed first in jolla?
