Maybe this is over simplistic but my mum understands
"download".

That seems to me to be the most natural and ubiquitous term
understood 
in the wild by all people today.

The option for a person to download and add a specific
event, set of 
contact details etc. from a uF enabled page would seem to be
an optimal 
outcome. Fundamentally, users are downloading that data
first, then 
adding it to an application -- usually requiring an extra
step to 
confirm that action in a dialogue box.

Seeing the uF or downloads icon then a list of available uF
"downloads" 
to cherry pick from would also be easily understood and
used.

All the best,
Jon Tan
