IMazing

iMazing (formerly known as DiskAid) is a software utility developed by DigiDNA for Windows and macOS to allow the backup and data management of iOS and iPadOS devices.

Description
The backups are cumulative and don’t overwrite themselves, like Time Machine for macOS. It supports connecting wirelessly after the first trust confirmation via USB. It has a file browser that can inspect backups, media (all files accessible without a backup), and logs. The user can also view and edit the documents folder of any app that supports iTunes file sharing (on versions of iOS older than 8.3, the apps don’t need to support it) and on older iOS devices, view and edit all folders relating to the app (in “Developer”). The user can also browse an app’s contents via a backup. iMazing can download apps from the App Store into the .ipa format, though the user needs to be signed in to the account that the app will be downloaded through (family sharing apps not supported). iMazing can also view, export, and import photos, music, videos, messages, WhatsApp chats, and Safari history bookmarks and reading lists. It can also detect, but not remove, Pegasus spyware.

Limitations

 * iMazing cannot download iCloud backups.
 * iMazing is semi-paid.
 * iMazing is not yet available for Linux. The ability to run it through has not yet been tested as of April 2022.
