However, so far PhoneRescue 3 can't fully support recovering from iCloud with iOS 9. The Windows version of iOS 9.3 can solely recover photos from iCloud, while the Mac version for iCloud recovery is only available for system below iOS 9.

Integrated iOS Repair Tool

This is a new function supporting to fix up a variety of iOS errors like white apple screen, reboot cycle, and black screen. It helps whenever your iPhone runs into failed recovery, upgrade error or jailbreak collapse.
Usually many may suggest a factory reset or iTunes/iCloud restoration when given those problems. But by doing so it will wipe out your iPhone in advance, you may thus lose other data that can never be recovered or restored.
Unlike factory reset and iTunes restoration, PhoneRescue 3 doesn't remove your current data during the repairing, and meanwhile, update your device to the latest iOS version. So whenever your iPhone breaks down, PhoneRescue 3 worth your bet.

PhoneRescue 3 introduces an innovative shortcut to help you quickly pinpoint whatever is lost on your iPhone when recovering from the backup. It's helpful especially when small pieces of personal data, like Contacts, Call History, Messages, Reminders, Notes, Safari Bookmarks, are included in the backup but somehow lost on your device.

Consequently, as results were enormously narrowed down from the total backup storage to limited options, it's much easier to spot your needed files since you don't have to filter numerous options one by one.

During the whole review, the process was fast and efficient with accurate recovering result. My iTunes backup was 1.3 GB corresponding to my 16GB iPhone 6s. Therefore if you got a larger device, the time would likely to be added to over 1 minute.

It does an excellent job at providing all the necessary functions to find back lost pictures, texts, personal data and even files from third party apps - up to 25 types. The integrated repair tool also help you fix multiple iOS errors while perfectly preserve the original data inside, making it a preferable system repair method to the proper recovery.

I'm looking forward to seeing more new features and making the software even more reliable. Now, you can download PhoneRescue from official website to have a try.
