Horrible support
August 17, 2019

First off, the software download had a virus in it, as detected by WEBROOT. Luckily, Webroot quarantined the software so that there was no collateral damage. Then the license key does not work. Says that the key came from a non iMobie website, even though the key came from an email sent by iMobie. I open a ticket but no response. Then i request a refund, but you can't do that unless you close the ticket. But the issue is not resolved and nobody will work on it if i close the ticket.

Terrible
August 1, 2019

The software did not work. I attempted to contact support several times. They take a long time to get back to you and then never Resolved the issue. They ignored me when I asked for a refund yet sold me a product that did not work. Absolutely do not recommend

I bought this program to transfer 1 file only from an older iPad to a New ipad I bought some on as a gift. It does not work and I was told it was because it did not support the newer IOS on my MAC. WHAT... only works on old systems. After over 2 months of back and forth I gave up and had found another solution. No refund so don't believe what they say about a refund. All a bunch of sales gimics.

I bought their software to backup my phone to my computer, but it ended up creating so many copies of the same files so that my hard drive was completely full, so full that I couldn't do anything. I told them the issue and asked for a refund, but it took almost two weeks for them to actually honor it. It was a back and forth conversation that went on forever. I kept telling them that I wanted them to honor their money-back guarantee, but they kept on insisting that their software was not faulty.

Well done

I like AnyTrans for iOS so much because it helps me transfer many photos from iPhone to my computer. It is very fast. Deserve five stars!

Poor customer service, only available via email. Takes 24-36 per single response. Responses are repetitive. I'm now on my 5th request for a refund, as the software was not able to restore my lost iPhone calendar. They requested a log from the software in which I sent them numerous times, and they said they were unable to read their own log. Still waiting on my refund, to which they keep asking me to try another software of theirs. Definitely will not. Wouldn't recommend iMobie to anyone!

I did everything they asked, used the free version which claimed to have found he files. You then need to purchase the full version to do the actual recovery. They say that if it doesn't work they'll refund your money.
I bought the package, ran the programme and the files I needed were not there.
I made a claim for my refund and they give you a load of T's & C's which basically get them off the hook and out of the refund.

Definitely stay away, try something else, try anything else before you give these cowboys a penny.

I purchased a family license for ANYTRANS as it had good reviews from several reliable sources, primarily to transfer music from an older iMac to a new iPhone. But I think that the experts did not actually use the software to any extent. Many of the songs did transfer, but some were missed and there were numerous duplicates. I could not get product support to respond to numerous requests for help nor refund my money. Of course they were quick to respond to my request for information before I purchased the software.

Scammers.
November 2, 2017

Posing as a fake help site full of almost helpful tips, this site only exists to push people towards their dodgy software. All ISPs should block it immediately.

Waste of time and money
November 2, 2017

I purchased a download based upon info they supplied. The product was not usable on my device and I requested a refund. In broken English they said no and sent me a separate page of specs that were not available at the time of the sale. They also redirected the sale away from PayPal (without me knowing it). Because of that I cannot get a refund. Smart crooks. Finally got a refund. Because of Pay Pal.

Ridiculous scam
October 14, 2016

Totally wasted almost $70 on Imobie "Anytrans" for mac and Iphone. Check out there refund policy. What a joke! Software doesn't work AT ALL. They play games with refund, same email back and forth.NO PHONE # that speaks volumes. If I could personally put this company out of business I would, and SHOULD. RIP OFFS!

Major waste of money!
September 21, 2016

This was useless for me trying to retrieve skype messages from my ipad. The website states that it can specifically recover certain data but it does not. It may show that there are 72 items in the skype app but AFTER PAYING you see nothing in the recovery folder on your computer. I wish there were more reviews that I would not have wasted my money.
