In their own words
DearMob iPhone Manager
DearMob iPhone Manager is desktop software for transferring, backing up, restoring and managing iOS and iPadOS content. It runs on Windows and macOS, transfers more than 15 file types over Wi-Fi or USB, and does not require iTunes. Backup options include full, incremental and selective backup and restore, with copies saved to a PC, Mac or external hard drive. Media tools handle photos, music and videos, including HEIC conversion, music format conversion, video rotation and ringtone creation. The software also manages contacts, messages, apps and app data, books, podcasts, calendars, voice memos, bookmarks and files. For moving to a new iPhone or iPad, it describes one-to-one content cloning. Users can password-protect backup files, photos, videos and contacts, and encrypt backups and media files. Digiarty says it does not collect transferred files or file-encryption passwords, though troubleshooting may involve sending a log file. The trial has daily limits for transfers and backup tasks. Premium 365 costs $29.95 a year; Lifetime License is $39.95 as a one-time purchase fee; Family License is $59.95 as a one-time purchase fee.
