## History

Developed by DigiDNA, iMazing was initially released in 2008 as DiskAid, enabling users to transfer data and files from the iPhone or iPod Touch to Mac or Windows computers.[1][2] DiskAid was renamed iMazing in 2014.[3][4] Version 2.0 was released on September 13, 2016.[5]

In August 2021, version 2.14 of iMazing added a spyware detection feature. The feature is based on Amnesty International’s Mobile Verification Toolkit to detect Pegasus Spyware following the publication of Pegasus Project.[6]

## Description

With iMazing, an iPhone or iPad can be used similarly to an external hard drive.[4][7] It performs tasks that iTunes doesn’t offer,[1] including incremental backups of iOS devices, browsing and exporting text and voicemail messages, managing apps, encryption, and migrating data from an old phone to a new one.[8][9][10][11]

The menu bar app iMazing Mini enables automatic, wireless and encrypted backups of iPhones.[12][13] The iMazing HEIC Converter is a free desktop app for Mac and PC that lets users convert photos from HEIC format to JPG or PNG.[14]
