It has happened to me several times that due to my own inattention I have accidentally deleted some documents or voice memos from my iOS device. If I was lucky and managed to back them up via iTunes or iCloud earlier, I was able to restore the device, but when there was no backup, I thought I would never see my data again. But in certain cases, iMyfone D-Back for Mac can save you.

D-Back is designed for situations where, at least at first glance, it seems that you have lost some data from your iPhone or iPad forever. The developers at iMyfone tried to create such an application that can rescue deleted or otherwise lost or damaged data from iOS.

There are many examples of how you can lose your data, but a common scenario comes with, for example, a typical black screen or a glowing apple logo without the ability to start anything. iMyfone D-Back can rescue data from a device that is broken on the software side.

A typical example is when you are on vacation, where you are usually away from Wi-Fi for a long period of time so you can back up your data regularly. You spend a week taking photos by the sea, you don't have a backup, and then for some reason - whether it's a software bug or your own fault - you lose them. Although Apple has a trash can for these cases, from which deleted photos can be retrieved for a few days, but once the expiration date has passed, you no longer have a chance. In addition, there is no "savings basket" in the case of notes or a voice recorder.

Of course, the application is not a panacea and cannot perform miracles. He knows how to search deleted messages, lists of recent calls, contacts, videos, photos, calendars, Safari history, voice memos, reminders, written notes or even history on communication tools such as Skype, WhatsApp or WeChat, but of course they must first evaluate how the device is damaged and whether it can extract data from it at all.

It tries to download and install the latest software and firmware on software-damaged devices, which can solve for example the problem of black screen, frozen recovery mode, etc., and if necessary, it also works with iTunes and iCloud backups, so that any lost data can be searched even within these backups.

No password, no blow

The application can also recover data from a device that has been jailbroken, forgotten the security code, or infected with a virus. However, don't expect the app to restore your carrier-blocked device or stolen iPhone. Every time you restore a damaged device, you need to enter your iCloud password. Naturally, iMyfone D-Back cannot cope with hardware problems, such as when your motherboard breaks down.

As soon as the application finds your lost or deleted files, it will display them all clearly by type. You can then either upload them back to the device or save them to your computer. I've personally tried connecting the primary iPhones and iPads that I use every day. I was quite surprised how much I had already deleted and what could be restored again. Like the notes just mentioned.

The individual recovery options are listed in a clear panel on the left, and you just need to follow simple steps for a successful procedure. Every recovery is a little different because it always depends on what exactly is being recovered and how - whether it's from a damaged, bricked or working iOS device. In any case, be prepared that the whole process can easily take more than an hour.

iMyfone D-Back works not just on Mac, Of also on Windows. The price is high, but there is a trial version where you can try out how the app works. In the end, the invested 50 dollars (1 crowns) may turn out to be trivial, when, for example, it saves your entire collection of vacation photos.
