LET'S BE HONEST. However much we love our Apple mobile devices, iTunes often frustrates. Whether in the olden days as a stand-alone app or on more modern versions of macOS, where it was integrated into the Finder, there's plenty that Apple's own tools simply can't do.

That's where DigiDNA's iMazing comes in.

This handy mobile device manager for Macs and Windows PCs puts you in control of your iPhone, iPad, iPod and even Vision Pro in ways which Apple would never allow.

On a Mac, iMazing 3 requires macOS El Capitan or later. With it, you can manage iPhones and iPads going right back to the first-generation models, any iPod touch and iPods mini, nano and classic (iPod shuffles can only be managed on a PC). iOS support goes all the way back to Version 4.0, with the app's file transfer, music export and app management features compatible with any version, right back to iOS 1.0.
