iBackup Viewer

iBackup Viewer lets users explore and extract a variety of data from local iOS device backups on macOS and Windows. It can read both standard and encrypted backups created by iTunes or other applications, presenting the file system and allowing selective recovery of items such as contacts, call logs, Safari history, photos, videos, voice memos, and recordings.

The tool offers export options for extracted content: contacts can be saved as vCard files, messages—including iMessage, SMS, and chats from apps like WhatsApp, WeChat, and Line—can be exported to PDF, plain‑text, CSV, or HTML formats, and media files are written to the desktop for easy access. The free version covers these basic extraction tasks, while a Pro upgrade unlocks additional export capabilities.

Target users are individuals who need to retrieve personal information from iPhone backups without restoring the device, such as those recovering lost contacts, preserving message histories, or salvaging photos and recordings after a device failure or migration. The software focuses on privacy‑preserving, local processing of backup data.
