PhoneBrowse is a free Windows utility that enables you to manage your iOS device data directly from your computer.
The application brings you a straightforward interface, works with multiple iOS versions and device models, and lets you back up various types of files from the connected gadget. What's more, it completes any given task within moments, without slowing down the performance of your system in the process.
However, the program comes with many flaws. For instance, it doesn't provide you with a built-in media player which might come in handy when deciding which songs or videos from your iOS device to transfer to your computer. PhoneBrowse also fails to reveal your address book. Hence, you cannot back up your contacts to your PC.
But the most important disadvantage is the fact that it doesn't show you the correct filenames of your songs and videos. So, you can't be 100% sure that you're backing up or deleting the correct iOS media files.
In my opinion, you should try the shareware variant of this application from the same developer. Even though it comes with a price, the program provides you with more useful features and works great.
