AnyTrans
AnyTrans is an iOS device manager and file-transfer utility developed by iMobie, designed as an alternative to iTunes and Apple's native sync tools. It allows users to back up iPhone and iPad contents to their Mac, transfer data between iOS devices and computers, manage files across iTunes and iCloud accounts, and download media from hundreds of websites. The app supports scheduling automatic wireless backups, extracting data from old iTunes or iCloud backups, and transferring content between Android and iOS devices. It is particularly popular with users who need flexible, granular control over iOS data transfers and media library management.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionAnyTrans is currently an Intel-only application — the latest publicly available version (8.9.14) is built exclusively for x86-64 processors and does not include native Apple Silicon support. The developer, iMobie, has not yet released a Universal Binary or native arm64 build, though the app continues to receive updates. Since Apple will remove Rosetta 2 in macOS 28 (September 2028), you have roughly two years to monitor iMobie's development. We recommend checking the AnyTrans download page and the Setapp portal periodically over the coming months to watch for a native Apple Silicon release announcement. If native support remains unavailable as the 2028 deadline approaches, consider alternatives like iMazing or Syncios, both of which are actively developed and offer comparable iOS backup, restore, and data-transfer features — confirm their native Apple Silicon status at the time of your transition.
