Wondershare Dr. Fone for Mac is a data recovery tool for iOS devices that you can use on your Mac computer. This tool helps you restore the various files you’ve lost on your iPhone, iPod, or iPad and save them to your computer for safer storage. You don’t have to worry so much about losing all of your device’s data anymore.

Can’t Go The Other Way

If you’re using or have used an Apple product, one of the things that would have definitely annoyed you is the fact that Apple’s handheld products’ files can’t be easily accessed through the computer. Often, it’s a one-way path: you can move files to your device but you can’t retrieve them the same way. Other times, the connection needed is exclusive between Apple products. This is especially noticeable when dealing with iTunes, since the only thing you can access on your iPhone is your camera photos. Thus, it creates a ton of problems when you lose your files. It could be due to accidental deletion or corruption of the device, or even just losing your device altogether. If you haven’t backed up important files on it, it’s not going to be easy to try and retrieve files from something that doesn’t naturally let you do so. Fortunately, Wondershare worked on this problem and delivered a powerful recovery app that’s easy to use.

Hero of Lost Files

Dr. Fone is a data recovery software that can retrieve any type of file from your handheld device. Whether it’s deleted videos, photos, text messages, contacts, memos, call logs, or calendars, it can be recovered. All you need for it to work are your USB cable and your computer. Just plug in your iPhone, iPod, or iPad and start the scanning process. It will show you previews of the files the program has found and you can then choose which ones you want to recover and it will save it to your computer. If you can’t do a direct export of data because you don’t have your device, you can just use your iTunes Backup Recovery Mode or iCloud backup—which is why you should back up your files often. These two are the methods Dr. Fone gives you and they are easy to accomplish. If you need further help with your device because it became corrupted in some way, Dr. Fone even offers a “Fix iOS To Normal” feature. This works if your device is stuck on the white screen, Recovery Mode, Apple logo, or black screen.

Worth the Price

Wondershare Dr. Fone works great for most versions and Apple platforms and helps you out immensely. However, it’s the kind of program that will force you to really buy it to be able to use its most important feature. There is no trial recovery where you can retrieve a limited amount of files—the trial version will only preview your files. However, Dr. Fone has become a trusted program for Apple users for years, so you will definitely get your money’s worth.
