TL;DR: Keep all your data organized using iMazing 2, a possible iTunes replacement that works on both Mac and Windows and is on sale for just $19.99.


The rumors were true: iTunes is dead. (Or at least it will be later this year.) And while some people are getting super nostalgic about the good ol’ days of hypnotic visualizers and first-generation iPods, others are all, “Bye Felicia.”

Regardless of how you feel about Apple’s signature music manager, you have to admit it was never very efficient. Anytime you got a new iPhone, iPad, or iPod, you’d spend an entire day (or more) managing, transferring, and saving all your old data. In fact, screaming at the computer during this process is basically a rite of passage for Apple users. 

The good news is you don’t need iTunes to manage your data anyway. Available on both Mac and Windows, iMazing 2 is basically a virtual usher, escorting your data quickly and easily to wherever you want it to go. You don’t need the help of iCloud or iTunes and you can drag and drop all of your data back and forth between your Mac or PC and any iOS device in minutes, rather than hours. 

It works with photos, video, music, contacts, voicemails, text messages, call history, voice memos, notes, e-books, and pretty much anything else you can think of. So when you get a new phone, all you’ll have to do is connect it wirelessly or through USB to your computer and restore your backup or just drag and drop whatever you want to put back on it.

A universal license for iMazing 2 usually would cost you $90, but right now it’s on sale for just $20 — quite the steal for smooth-as-butter data transferring for life.
