Move contacts between 2 accounts

Question

On my Samsung Phone with Andorid 11 and OneUI Core 3.1 I have 2 google accounts. Lets call them ACC1 (private) and ACC2 (corporate).

By default when I add new contacts, phone add them to google ACC2.

Very often I change the destination account in time when I create new contact, but also very often forget to change them.

I do not see possibilty to change account after the creation process is done.

As I have them both (google accounts) configured on my Phone I want to ask:

How to easily move specific contact from google ACC2 to ACC1 ?

It started to get more compiled. I have two contacts both with the same name. 1 stored in the phone. 2 saved in google contacts. How to check with the "Google contacts" application, ie without logging into the web, which contact is saved in the cloud and which on the device? I just want to select the correct contact on my phone and remove it from the device. — Michał Lipok, Jul 6, 2021 at 11:29

If you want to copy multiple accounts you can use Google Contacts web UI and their export/import function:

Step 1: Export existing Gmail contacts

Step 2: Import the file

On your computer, go to Google Contacts, then sign in with your other Gmail account.
At the left, click Import.
Click Select File.
Choose your file.
Click Import.

Yes, I know this feature, but very often I want to move single specific contact, which I added few minutes before by mistake, and I do not want to especially login,export,delete,import via browser. It is too time consuming to do this several times a month. So I was wondering that maybe there is some utility program to transfer contacts between accounts, or just some option in the system that I don't see.
