A simple tool that recovers lost and corrupted data from your iPhone or iPad
Of all the millions of iOS phone users out there, many end up losing data and are totally unaware that they can actually use the iMyfone D-Back Mac computer program to instantly get it back, without having to take up space on their phones.
Overview of iMyfone D-Back
It's quite rare to find a phone application that actually works from your Mac computer, but that's precisely what iMyfone D-Back is. Say that you have pictures and videos on your phone that you just can't find anymore. You don't know where they went, but they're gone. Rather than wasting space and processing power with your phone, you can get the iMyfone program for your desktop or laptop and simply plug your phone in, where it's read like an external HDD, and the powerful program scans it for lost data. It's pretty simple and very cool.
The iMyfone D-Back program was created by iMyfone Technology Co, Ltd and is only available as a free version trial. So you'll get limited functionality and a trial window with which to use the program, but then will be prompted to pay for it. It's available for the Mac and Mac OS X operating systems and is a very nifty little tool that accesses your phone without having to take up space on it.
How iMyfone D-Back Works
The idea behind this program is twofold. First, it's meant to be a program that you use for your phone without actually having to sap up space and power from your phone. Secondly, full-sized computers are far more powerful than smartphones, so you're getting a more powerful program that's able to find and recover more lost data than your phone ever could. It opens up to an attractive white and blue screen, with your options printed in large lettering.
You'll see a blue bar on the left side of the screen, with options like Smart Recovery, Recover from iOS Device, Recover from iTunes, and even Recover from iCloud. With your phone connected, you will simply select the corresponding option and allow the recovery process to begin. You'll see categories like Messages, Call history, your list of apps, and media data that the program found. Hopefully your deleted data will be contained within.
iMyfone D-Back Features
One of the coolest things about this device in particular is that it goes beyond simple smartphone recovery. Let's say you're in the iCloud and have a lot of precious data stored there but lost some of it. You can also sync this program up to your iCloud account and find deleted data there. The same holds true with your iPod, if you've mysteriously lost a few songs or video files.
Overall, the program is fairly simple and intuitive. All of the options are laid out for you, and the hardest part about using this program is the fact that you'll have to wait until the scan is completed, which could take a while.
