Don’t have to wait till entire scan:

How to Download and Use FonePaw iPhone Data Recovery software

Here is a simple explanation of how to download and use this software in easy steps:

1. Connect iOS device: Firstly, connect the iOS device whose data needs to be recovered to your PC or Mac with a cable by following the instructions.
2. Scanning: Automatically, the software will scan the entire content of your device. It will take few minutes for the scan to complete. The result will be displayed in the categories of the Backup files and the Deleted files.
3. Preview and Save data: Take a view of the recovered data and click on the items that you need to save on your computer. Then press the “Recover” tab and all the selected items will be saved on your computer.

While we could not find many flaws in the software, there are some shortcomings worth mentioning.

Can’t run iTunes in back:

You cannot run iTunes on your Mac when FonePaw is running so as to avoid creating a new backup and overwriting an older one.

Both backup and deleted files are presented:

There is no such option as to filter by deleted items only. This implies scrolling through the entire list of information (imagine 64GB) to search the data you are looking for. Though there is search field, but it is not useful for all the data. To justify, the image is stored as IMG_xxx. It is difficult to search a particular image that you are looking for this way.

Doesn’t restore data back to the iOS device directly:

When data is recovered, now restoring it back to the iOS device is a cumbersome task, as at present, they are stored in the computer. Photos, videos are stored in JPEG or PNG format while contacts are saved as cross-platform CSV files and notes are saved as TXT files. These formats are easy to understand and hence easy to save and restore back to the iOS device. However, message threads and call history are recovered in HTML format. It is difficult to put them back on the iOS device.

License cost:

The software can be downloaded for free. It allows a free trial version for 30 days. However, this trial version allows only thumbnail image preview,  a few Contact or Call History entries visible. Once purchased, the FonePaw iPhone Data Recovery software all the data can be recovered. However, the cost to purchase this license is $69.95!!

The cost suggests that the recovered data should be as valuable as the software to purchase for.
