iBackup Extractor for Mac

iBackup Extractor is a desktop application that helps users access and recover data stored in iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch backups created by Finder or iTunes on Mac. Because iOS backups are not designed to be human-readable, iBackup Extractor provides a structured way to preview backup contents and selectively extract individual items to a computer—even if the original iOS device is no longer available.

Key Features

• Automatic Backup Discovery: Finds local iOS device backups stored on the computer and enables quick selection between multiple backup versions.
• Backup Browser (Explorer View): Lets users inspect the contents of a backup by category or through a file-level explorer for deeper access.
• Messages & Chats Export: Extract SMS/MMS, iMessage, WhatsApp and LINE conversations, including all important details (timestamps, contact info, and attachments).
• Photo & Video Retrieval: Extract photos and images stored in a backup which may no longer exist on the device itself.
• Contacts, Calendars & Personal Data: Retrieve key personal data from a backup, including contacts and calendar entries, for migration or recovery scenarios.
• Voicemail & Voice Memos: Extract voicemail messages and voice memos from the backup to the Mac, in formats that you can listen to.
• Notes, Reminders & More: Access additional content types commonly stored in backups, such as notes, reminders, and other user data.
• Encrypted & Unencrypted Backup Support: Users can even access the contents of their encrypted backups, after unlocking them with the correct password.
• Selective Extraction: Copy only the items needed rather than restoring an entire device backup. This provides flexibility and avoids the loss of data, which can occur when restoring a backup.

iBackup Extractor finds your iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad backups automatically. You can choose the backup you wish to browse and extract files from, and proceed to view the backup of your Call Logs, Contacts, Messages, Photos, Calendars, Internet Browsing History and Bookmarks, Notes, App Data, all directly in Backup Extractor. Once you've selected what you wish to extract, the operation is as simple as clicking a button. Literally, click "Copy" to transfer those files, converted to a readily available format, directly to your computer. Another feature present in iBackup Extractor is the Backup Explorer, which allows you to see the file system itself, and to copy files from it. Finally, you can use iBackup Extractor to create new backups of your iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch, as well as restore your device from backup.
