What's new in version 3.6.5
iMazing 3.6 adds music transfer to iPod classic, a feature the iMazing community has been requesting for a long time. We see this as a tribute to Apple lovers, so we're offering it free to all users.
This release also introduces Unified Logs, a new dataset for browsing and exporting Apple Unified Logs (system logs) from devices, for developers and other forensic tasks.
A first version of iMazing Configurator for Windows is now available, allowing you to apply blueprints to multiple devices simultaneously. The blueprint editor is currently only available on macOS, but we plan to add it in an upcoming update. For now, blueprints must be created on macOS and can then be imported on Windows to be applied to devices.
Support for new devices
- iPhone 18 Pro
- iPhone 18 Pro Max
- iPhone Duo
- Apple Watch Series 12
- Apple Watch Ultra 4
Music
- Added: music transfer to iPod classic
Photos
- Improved: video quality at higher quality settings - eliminates blocky artifacts (macroblocking) when converting videos to H.264
- Fixed: dropped frames when converting variable-frame-rate videos
- Greatly improved: photo loading performance on iOS 27
Unified Logs (available with iMazing Business)
- Added: Unified Logs, a new dataset to browse, filter, search, inspect, and export device system logs
Backups
- iMazing will propose pausing OneDrive synchronization on Windows while backing up to a OneDrive folder, and will resume it once the backup completes. This feature should prevent issues when backing up devices, where OneDrive may lock iMazing out of accessing files while synchronization is in progress.
iMazing Configurator (available with iMazing Business)
- Windows: Added iMazing Configurator views. Blueprints created on macOS can be imported and applied on Windows. Note: The blueprint editor is currently only available on macOS. However, generated blueprints can be applied on both Windows and macOS.
Additional Improvements and Fixes
- Messages and WhatsApp: Fixed an issue where links in messages could result in corrupted PDF files
- Call History and Voicemail: Improved search for contact names and phone numbers
- Device Summary: Fixed an issue where the view could remain blank after a refresh with an expanded battery widget
- Diagnostics: Fixed exporting battery diagnostics to JSON, which resulted in an empty file
- iMazing CLI: Fixed emojis and reactions not appearing in PDF exports (Windows)
- Other general stability improvements

iMazing lets an iPhone user backup, load, clean and control his or her iPhone without big brother Apple interfering. With iMazing, an iPhone user owns his or her phone (more or less) with no need for iCloud.
Customer support: 5.0
Customer support responds quickly. Design was noted as an area of improvement due to MacUpdate requirement to note something which needs improvement. iMazing design is in fact good but could probably be improved.

Version: 3.6.2
iMazing hands down is an awesome backup app for your iOS devices. The MAJOR downside? Along with being a subscription model the app is LOCKED IN to ONLY the device you pay for. Any other device you add is another cost. Also, if you upgrade your iOS device you are SOL. You can't add that device unless you pay [once again]. You can transfer information to that upgraded device, but you can't add it to iMazing unless you pay. So subscription+iOS/per device+upgrading = $$$ to iMazing (which is a good money generator to the devs to maintain the app). Just FYI

Version: 3.5.2
The subscription price for ONE (versus five) connected Apple mobile device is $29.99. The $49.99 price is for five connected devices. See the dev site for all options. The upgrade to version 3 is currently 50% off, and does *not* require a subscription.

Version: 3.4.0
In a despicable move against their own customers this has been turned into a subscription trap! Avoid!

Version: 3.4.0
v3.4.0 itself has an update: v3.4.0 (23214). Why it isn't simple v3.4.1, I have no idea. Rather than tangle with the extensive Release notes for each v3.4.0 series sub-update versions 😝, go to the nicely written blog page for v3.4.0(x) in general: <https://imazing.com/blog/imazing-3-4-new-features-refined-interface-and-pro-tools-enhancements-new-apple-software-iphone-17-support> The main point is that v3.4.0 is compatible with the new macOS 26, Tahoe.
