What AFWD 2.0 does
One app for your phone’s data.
- 01
Back up and restore iPhones
Choose how to back up: Incremental updates your last AFWD backup with what changed and is fast after the first run. Full makes a fresh complete backup and keeps the previous one until the new one succeeds. Messages only reads the iPhone directly and keeps just Messages, small and restorable.
- 02
Read, search, and export messages
Browse conversations from backups and phones, search across them, select messages, save attachments, and export what you need.
- 03
Mirror Android texts live
The AFWD Companion phone app links your Android phone for live texts over Wi-Fi. The Device page offers the Companion to a phone as a QR download over your local Wi-Fi, or installs it over USB.
- 04
Your music, videos, and photos in one place
The Media Center brings music, videos, photos, and playlists from this PC, your phones, and Spotify together. Sign in to Spotify through Spotify’s own page to bring in playlists and Liked Songs; AFWD never sees your password.
- 05
Move files between your PC and phone
Copy photos and files between this PC and your phone, or pull single files out of a backup. Create folders, upload, copy to PC, and delete, all from one view.
- 06
Make AFWD yours
AFWD has a glass look with a title-bar information island that shows your device, backup progress, and what’s playing. Theme Studio tunes the mode, colour scheme, glass, and glow.
- 07
Repair, inspect, and get help
Repair and inspect backups, read the activity log, and get help. A support bundle contains AFWD’s logs, settings without secrets, and version details. It never includes messages, backups, passwords, or keys.
Privacy
Your backups never leave this PC.
The phone companion link works only on your local network. Spotify is contacted only after you sign in, and Google’s servers only if you download the Android tools.
