IOTransfer 3 for Windows

IOTransfer 3 is the latest program from IOTransfer Studio that allows users shift their files around from various devices to keep everything available, whether you are using an iPhone, an iPad or a personal computer. The file management tool is free to use on a seven-day trial period but it limits you to 20 transfers per day until you pay.

The ultimate Apple device manager?

As far as utilities & tools software goes, IOTransfer 3 represents a useful package. The program has been developed for users who have lots of files and documents on their iPad which they want to back up or gain access to on their PC. Given that historically Apple devices have not been the most user-friendly when they are plugged into anything other than other Apple gadgets, this software is extremely useful because it makes shifting files from A to B child's play. Need a document that you wrote on your iPad and want to combine it with images that are held on your iPhone, but want to do all of this on your PC, perhaps to make a Powerpoint presentation? If so, then IOTransfer is the management tool for you. Within a few clicks of your mouse, it becomes possible to access everything that you might need – even if you have lots of iPads connected to your computer. As well as making transferring easy, a key function of the program is that it allows users to keep their Apple devices' memory freed up. All too often, you cannot take a snap, record a video or download an app on an iPhone, for instance, because the operating system is taking up too much memory space. With this package, you can organize your files so that there is always room for something new when you are on the go.

Just a transferal utility?

Although, as the name implies, IOTransfer 3 is all about moving files from device to device, there is much more to this handy utilities & tools program. Firstly, it offers an online video downloading function whereby you can grab any YouTube video you happen to want to watch later and transfer it from the downloading device to view at your leisure – even when you are offline. There is also an extremely effective clean up tool. If you have old bits of data hanging around on your iPad or iPhone from apps you might have downloaded in the past but subsequently removed, then the system will find these and clear any remnants from your device's memory. You can use it to back up your images onto a PC without the need to install iTunes onto your computer, which is extremely handy if you run different sorts of music playback software on your PC. The program also offers a powerful bulk-transfer feature for music files. According to the makers of IOTransfer Studio, this is a much faster way to transfer iPhone music than any other method around. 

Try transferring

Given that the software is free to trial, it is a good way to try transferring files and see whether it suits you. If you are looking to just transfer photos, then download iPhone Photo Manager.
