iPhone Data Recovery for Mac review
iPhone Data Recovery for Mac lets you retrieve and restore various types of data to your iPhone 5, 5s, and 5c using one of several recovery methods. The clear interface makes the program accessible to users of all experience levels, so no matter what you've lost or why, you can quickly get it back with this program.
Pros
Three ways: When you need to recover files for your device, this app gives you three methods to choose from. You can restore from the device, from an iTunes backup, or from an iCloud backup, which gives you a good chance of finding what you're looking for.
Clear interface: This app's interface is clearly laid-out so you can clearly see all of your options and make selections quickly. Once you've completed a scan, you'll see a list of recovered files on the left-hand side of the viewing window and previews of selected files on the right.
Cons
Preview limitations: This program does not allow you to preview Voice Memos, so you have to recover all of them without knowing what you're getting. The previews for Messages also aren't terribly detailed, and they don't give you a good idea of what you wind up with when you complete the recovery process.
Bottom Line
iPhone Data Recovery for Mac gives you multiple tools to help recover all kinds of lost data from your device. While some of the previews aren't terribly helpful, many of them are, and the clear interface makes the entire process as painless as possible. You can try out the app for free, but in order to actually recover any of the files found, you'll have to upgrade to the full version for $79.95.
Editors' note: This is a review of the trial version of iPhone Data Recovery for Mac 5.0.0.0.
