iPhone Backup Unlocker Professional review
iPhone Backup Unlocker Professional allows you access to your iPhone backups, even if you've forgotten your password, by hacking the password to your backups.
Pros
Variety of attacks: The options offered can greatly improve your chances of success. The best option is the "Brute Force with Mask Attack," which lets you specify any parameters you remember about your password. This places a limit on the options the Brute Force Attack has to try and greatly improves the odds of success.
Logical interface: Each step you need to take to unlock your file is clearly laid out in the program's interface.
Automatic shutdown option: Because many of the operations in this program take so long to complete, the program gives you the option of shutting down the computer once the operation is complete. This is great if you want to run the recovery at the end of the day. It will then save the password for you in a password file.
Cons
Slow: During testing, the Brute Force Attack ran extremely slow, with no success. Even with the Mask Attack, the program took a very long time to recover the password.
Bottom Line
If you are locked out of an iPhone backup, this will get the job done. The program takes some time to complete its operations, but in the end, it should be able to recover your password for you.
Editors' note: This is a review of the trial version of iPhone Backup Unlocker Professional 3.1.0.0.
