iPhone Backup Extractor
iPhone Backup Extractor is a utility that extracts and recovers data from iTunes and iCloud iPhone backups stored on a Mac. It allows users to selectively recover contacts, text messages, iMessages, call history, photos, videos, WhatsApp messages, calendar entries, notes, and other iOS data without needing access to the original iPhone device. The app is particularly useful when an iPhone is lost, damaged, or when switching to a different device, as it enables preservation and retrieval of critical personal data from backup files.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionWe could not find any information indicating whether iPhone Backup Extractor has been updated to a native Apple Silicon build. The app's vendor website and public documentation do not clearly state the current architecture or development status. Since Apple is removing Rosetta 2 from macOS in September 2028, an Intel-only build will no longer launch at that point. Contact the vendor directly to confirm whether a native Apple Silicon version is planned. If the vendor cannot commit to a native build before that deadline, consider alternatives like iBackup Viewer or Coolmuster iPhone Backup Extractor, both of which are actively maintained and offer similar data extraction capabilities from iTunes backups on Mac.
