iMazing for Mac

• Pay whenever Apple Upgrades

  LizardxyNovember 5, 2016

  Pros

  This lets you avoid using iTunes and allows you to transfer files from a computer to an iphon/ipod/ipad. That is nice as long as it works. It will stop working. See below.

  Cons

  When Apple upgraded to iOS 10, I upgraded my iDevices as a responsible IT owner. But then iMazing stopped working on those devices. Basically, it seems, I have to pay for an iMazing upgrade because I accepted an iOS upgrade. This is not standard industry practice, and I am miffed.

  Summary

  If you want to keep paying, and paying, and paying, use IMazing. I am going to try to find something else.

• Buyer Beware! YOU HAVE TO PAY FOR UPDATES!

  Jmsped00September 15, 2016

  Pros

  Great software.

  Cons

  Horrible experience with the company! I purchased this software less than a year ago. Now I must pay to upgrade it so it works with IOS 10. I could see needing to pay or upgrade if I have been using the software for years, but not less than one year. BE WARNED.

• Beware of the C/NET Installer for iMazing

  garyddavisOctober 4, 2014

  Pros

  I haven't even run the program yet- I am recovering from the awful experience of running the "CNET-Installer.app" on my Mac. THIS IS A HUGE HURDLE.

  Cons

  C/NET is not as trustworthy as I would have hoped. The "Download" link downloads the CNET-Installer app. You have to use THAT to then download iMazing, but BEWARE of two gotchas in that installer. First, they give you the "standard" install which would default your browser to a Yahoo page, with an added toolbar, and some other crap. You have to select "Custom" install and the uncheck all the unwanted options (and they are definitely UNWANTED). OK that, and it takes you to another "Install" page which is NOT iMazing, but instead some sort of other "protection" program, and fortunately I saw that and clicked "Cancel" WHICH DOESN'T cancel all installs as CNET is hoping you'll believe, it just doesn't install the crapware. Click Cancel, and then you get to install iMazing.

  Summary

  We appreciate getting an opportunity to download a demo of software we are interested in; we don NOT at all appreciate the extremely sneaky attempt to inject other software in the process, CNET.

• Not as good as predecessor

  donpaskeOctober 4, 2014

  Pros

  It allows the transfer of files from a Mac to an iPhone or iPad.

  Cons

  DiskAid, the predecessor, allowed one to actually read Rich Text Documents on the mobile devices. iMazing does not. I don't want to have to convert everything to PDFs in order to use them on mobile devices.

  Summary

  Works, sort of.

• Really nice app, but does not sync track numbers

  rvlakSeptember 24, 2014

  Pros

  Friendly interface Easy operation Affordable

  Cons

  Track numbers erased Playlists not recognised

  Summary

  When I transfer music from my Mac to my iPhone, all track numbers are erased (set to 0). As a result, the original song order of the album is gone, songs are instead ordered alphabetically. Trying to bypass this by creating playlists in the right order on my Mac and then trying to sync that playlist is no option, as iMazing only sees a couple of empty 'Genius playlists' and none of my custom playlists in iTunes. This makes the otherwise superb app really a no-go for me.
