There was a time back ago when your mobile device could do little other than make calls and send texts. They did not include sophisticated apps or a camera and very few games. People back then had to carry around so many devices to do the job that the current iPhone does. Now developers are trying to make your iPhone an all in one device by placing in it everything you could possibly need on the road. The same goes for iPod and iPad devices too. Now, developers have turned your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch into a USB drive!
You can now turn your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch into a USB flash drive and enjoy carrying large files around. Over and above, you can do this regardless whether you have a jailbroken device or not!
Now let’s discuss why you would want to have one of these miracle apps.
Firstly, they use your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch flash memory as a USB Flash Drive. These apps can also act as a substitute to iTunes and it works just as well as iTunes or even better! You can also read and write all file on your device with no access restrictions what so ever. These apps are very user friendly and are available total free (with the exclusion of DiskAid which is charged). However, you do have a risk of accidently overwriting or deleting files.
If you have decided that you would like to enjoy using a feature like this, then there are a couple of Apps for you to choose from.
iFunBox:
iFunBox has a lot more to offer than the general USB storage function. This app facilitates the installation of .ipa apps without the need of an internet connection. You can also install or remove a couple of apps at a time directly from your computer. This app can do the function of iTunes at importing and exporting music.
There is currently no iFunbox version available for Mac devices. If you are interested in downloading iFunBox you can follow this link.
iPhone Explorer:
Unlike iFunBox, iPhone Explorer is available in both Windows and Mac versions. On the down side iPhone Explorer doesn’t have many features like iFunBox. iPhone Explorer is a very simple and easy to use app with no complications what so ever. You can move files easily by simply dragging and dropping the files.
You can download it from the official website. Just tap on the following link.
DiskAid:
DiskAid has many features just like iFunbox and has a few extra options too:
- access to contacts and text messages
- Export call history and notes
- Copy Voice memo’s, Camera Roll
- Listen to voice mail and more…
This application is not free but you may want to try the 14 day free trial before you can go ahead and purchase it. DiskAid is available through this link.
