100% Freeware!

iExplorer is 100% free, fully functional and not bundled with lots of crappy toolbars or other stuff to mess up your computer. If you like iExplorer and insist on paying us for it, checkout our store and maybe buy the full version of one of our other programs.

Works on Mac OSX & Windows!

This program was built from the ground up twice: first for Windows, then for Mac OS. It's a native program to each of those operating systems so it won't be ugly, buggy or laggy like some programs that are quickly ported over. It works on Mac OSX 10.5 and OSX 10.6, and it'll run on Windows XP, Vista or 7. It works with both 32 and 64 bit systems.

Works with or without jailbreaking!

iExplorer hacks into your iPhone so you don't have to break it. We've figured out ways to control the iPhone even better than iTunes, and the best part is, all you need to do is plug any iPhone, iTouch or iPad into the computer.

Modify files & folders on iPhone

Create, delete and rename files and folders on your iPhone or iPod Touch

Works with all iPhones & more

Works with all iPhones, iPod Touches, and iPads including the iPhone 4. Every firmware from version 2.0 to version 4 or later should work so you won't even need to update your device.

E-mail, SMS, voicemail, address book access!

(Optional) If you jailbreak your iPhone you can access the real root of your iPhone and recover your address book, SMS, e-mails and more.

USB iPhone Disk Mode (Use an iPhone as a Thumb or Pen Drive)

Allows you to use your iPhone as a flash drive / pen drive or put your iPhone into disk mode

Preview Files Before Transferring
