Let’s talk about features

Wondershare MobileTransfer’s features can be crammed up into four categories. Phone transfer, WhatsApp transfer, Backup, and Restore.

Phone transfer

Transfer up to 17 types of data between different ecosystems, including files that normally cannot be shared between Android, iOS, and Windows phones.

Benefit from a secure transfer, ensuring that the original files will not be altered, lost, or deleted during and after the process.

Compared to other means of data transfer, Wondershare MobileTrans is 3 faster than all of them, since all operations will be done on the computer and no Wi-Fi or internet is needed.

Additionally, you will be the only person who has access to the data, since the software doesn’t store it without asking permission first.

How do I transfer my data?

We’ve said this before. The process is simple, and can be done easily:

1. Download and install MobileTrans.
2. Click on Phone Transfer, and connect both phones to the computer.
   
3. Select what data you wish to transfer, then click Start.
   
4. Wait for the process to finish.

WhatsApp transfer

This feature is pretty self-explanatory. You can transfer all the WhatsApp data between phones, no matter what platform they use.

Take control of your WhatsApp files by backing them up on your computer and exporting them to different devices. There’s no risk of data leaking anymore.

More so, the backed-up files will not be overwritten, so you can keep multiple backups on your computer if you wish. This way, you can also transfer your data to multiple phones.

Here’s a list with all the different WhatsApp files you can transfer:

• Messages
• Photos (including stickers, profile pictures, and chat photos)
• Videos
• Attachments

How do I transfer my WhatsApp data?

The process is similar to the other feature:

1. Launch Wondershare MobileTrans and select WhatsApp transfer.
2. You can also transfer files from WA Business, LINE, Viber, Kik, and WeChat.
3. Connect your phone, select the type of files you wish to transfer, then click Start.
4. Wait for the process to finish.

Additionally, Wondershare created another nifty app especially for transferring WhatsApp files, called Wondershare Wutsapper.

This app can be used without the need for an intermediary computer. All you have to do is install it on both phones, connected them through USB, and you’re good to go.

Data Backup

Another great and useful feature from MobileTransfer is the data backup. More precisely, you can create backups of your entire phone and store them on the PC.

In contrast to the standard backup software such as iTunes, MobileTransfer doesn’t overwrite previously saved data, so you can store how many backups you wish.

Here’s a list with the type eligible data:

• Contacts, messages, voice memos
• Photos, music, videos, wallpapers
• Call history, ringtone, alarms
• Reminders, calendar, notes
• Apps and bookmarks

How do I backup my data?

1. Launch Wondershare MobileTransfer.
2. Connect your Phone, and select Backup.
3. Choose which data to backup, and select Start.
   
4. Wait for the process to finish.

Data Restoration

The last main feature that we’ll discuss is closely tied to data backup and has been mentioned before. After you backup your data, you can obviously restore it.

You can restore files from your phone’s special backup system, or by creating one with MobileTransfer. Moreover, you can preview the data before restoring it to the device.

Here is yet another list with the compatible files:

• Contacts
• Messages and call logs
• Audio
• Gallery
• Calendar
• App-specific data

The data restoration works flawlessly for over 6000 devices, including:

• iPhone 11, iPhone 11 Pro, iPhone XS, iPhone XS Max, iPhone X, and previous ones
• Almost all generations of iPads, including iPad Mini, iPad Pro, iPad Air, and more
• iPod touch from the 2nd generation to the 7th generation
• Samsung Galaxy S, Note, J Series, and other Samsung devices
• Other Android devices like HTC, Motorola, LG, Huawei, Xiaomi, OPPO, etc

How do I restore my data?

1. Launch Wondershare MobileTransfer, and select Restore.
   
2. Connect your phone, and choose from one of the available backups.
   
3. Then, select the content you wish to restore and click Start.

Pricing

Wondershare MobileTransfer has lots of different price plans and features marketed towards macOS and Windows. There are also a student and business-oriented plans.

The program also has a free, albeit very limited version, which allows for the restoration/backup/transfer of a maximum of 10 images.

The free version is more of a test drive before upgrading to one of these price plans:

For Windows:

As you can probably see, there is an annual or lifetime billing point. You can opt for different features, and you can pay with PayPal or other methods.

For Mac:

There is a big difference in prices between the Mac and the Windows price plans, however, only the prices have changed. All the other services remained the same.

NOTE

All of these price plans benefit from a 7-day money-back guarantee, are constantly updated for free, and are 100% secure.

Pros and cons

Final verdict

We reached the end of our review, and as we always do, we have to give our closing throughs regarding this interesting software.

Overall, we were very pleased with its performance. The transfer speeds are really fast, as long as you have a capable computer.

We also found the tool to be really useful, since normally you can’t transfer and interact with certain files between the different operating systems.

All in all, we recommend getting Wondershare MobileTransfer if you’re planning to buy a phone from a different brand. It does make moving things between the two phones so much easier.

One could argue that the prices for Mac users are way higher than for Windows, but that’s justified by the fact that Apple is known for trying to force users to utilize their own software.
