How can I view the contacts in Google?

Re: How To Backup Up Your Contacts To Google On Any Android Phone by Bossman(m): 11:18am On Mar 02, 2017*

As long as you log in with the same google account on the phone the contacts, calendar entries, etc. should automatically download/sync. You can enter contacts on any of your phones (IOS, android, windows), as long as they are all using the same google account, all those entries should sync between devices.

It's quite unfortunate that most people don't really know the features of the devices they use. Sometimes your device may get missing and all you can think of is your contacts and pictures.

Google can help you automatically back everything up. Once you sign in with a new device, everything including your contacts is moved to your new device.
Here's how to do it :

Turn on your data connection
Open Your Contacts Menu

Select Import/Export

Tap Next And You're Done. Keep Your Internet Connection On For 10 more Minutes Before Turning It Off

if u didn't sync with google,it's something you need to do periodically and not since 2015 as you have said

You don't need to sync periodically. Just put the syn switch ON and thats all. We have been using it since the days of jelly bean 2012/2013
