### "Best app for data recovery and Backups."

November 30, 2022

5.0

Pros

it is platform-independent. The user interface is good, the options are simple for a primary user even.

Cons

Some file recovery needs the device rooting.if the android device is formated before the backing up of files using Dr.fone, it will not give all files back without rooting.

### "Dr FONE et mon android"

March 8, 2023

5.0

La sauvegarde des données avec lesquels je travaille sont cruciales évidements, donc les disposer en sécurité avec DrFone a été une aubaine.

Pros

J'ai bien apprécié l'usage parce que j'était vraiment dans une problématique, et avoir eu recours a ce logiciel m'a permis de récupérer mes données et les sauvegarder en sécurité. Il faut bien suivre la méthode de déverrouillage après ça reste facile.

Cons

JE voulais réparer d'avantage mon téléphone, c'était difficile avec l'écran cassé, mais un peu de logique...et ça marche.

### "Récupérer les fichiers perdus sur Android "

Cela m'a permis de récupérer des fichiers important, effacés par erreur de mon téléphone.

Pros

Logiciel Facile a utiliser, récupération des données effacées impeccable

Cons

On ne peux pas récupérer des données d'un téléphone avec un écran cassé, il faut impérativement installer une appli et rooter le tel... Dommage

### "Dr Fone Review"

July 8, 2021

5.0

Overall Dr. Fome gets the job done, I mainly used it for data recovery, and that works like a charm.

Pros

Dr. Fone is a Powerfull Software, it has many useful tools to get around. It helps unlock iPhones and some models of androids.

Cons

Dr. Fone does not support old androids and some information is misleading, apart from this it's good.

### "This software is a scam."

January 22, 2022

1.0

It has been a nightmare using it. Still figuring out how to get my data back.

Pros

The interface is simple to use but that is simple for a reason. It is simple to back up your data but its hard to restore it.

Cons

I hate the fact that this software does not let me restore my data for free. It backups up my data but it backs it up in a .bak format unlike backing it up in a more readable format. Essentially its an effort to keep my data ransom until I pay for their paid version of the software. This has to be the most notorious strategy ever.

Thanks for sharing your experience. Firstly, we'd like to express our deepest apologies for the delayed response as well as the inconvenience caused by the trial version. Kindly let us explain it in more detail and see how we can help you solve the issue further. Normally, we provide the trial version for the users to back up files to confirm if it meets their requirements before purchasing. But if the customer wants to restore files without limitation, then he/she needs to subscribe to a plan to activate it as a full version. In order to bring more cool and powerful features to our users, our R&D team is always writing codes until late at night every day, seek your understanding based on our large investment of time and energy. If anything needs further help, please feel free to reach us at customer\_service@wondershare.com, and we are always happy to help!

Hi Donald. Thanks for sharing your experience. Sorry to hear that this software didn't work in the way you expected. Wondershare values each customer's benefits and we'll do our best to help you out. Per your description, please allow us to make a further explanation below: We accept a refund request if the customer encounters technical issues that are unable to be solved within 7 days. We are desperate to fix the problem after knowing you were encountering a problem during using the product, and this is the reason our support may ask you to provide more details (like a screenshot showing the problem and log files, etc.) for further troubleshooting, and this was also the reason we didn't process a refund for you in the first place. Seek your kind understanding. Since you have already contacted us, could you please update the ticket number or your order number here? With it, our senior support team will further look into your refund request and do the needful assistance ASAP.

The overall experience is great, nothing I wanted Dr.Fone couldn't do.

Hi Ibrahim. Glad to hear that you had a good experience with Dr.Fone. Regarding your concern about the price of our product. Actually, our price is fairly reasonable considering its function and stability compared with other tools. The pricing plan on our website is already our best value package and we can't go any lower. Please be advised that we will keep improving our program, we release updates frequently, and we also provide senior technical support. So we are hoping for your understanding on this matter.

### "ES MENTIRA, NO POSIBILITAN QUE HAGAS LA PRUEBA GRATUITA"

June 11, 2021

1.0

Ofrecen prueba gratuita para transferir datos entre dos iphones pero no es verdad. Conectas los teléfonos, copian los datos del primero, inicializan el segundo y en el momento que tienes que dar el ok para transferir los datos des el primer teléfono al segundo tienes que comprarlo. Han establecido un proceso mediante el cual aunque te registres para la prueba - el registro está lleno de obstáculos para que no sea fácil hacerlo - no la podrás hacer. Buscas soporte y no lo hay, el robot te dice que no te puede ayudar en la prueba gratuita. Un timo.

Pros

La experiencia para hacer la prueba gratuita no existe.

Cons

Anuncian prueba gratuita para transferir datos de un iphone a otro pero no permiten que la ejecutes sin comprar, es decir, que es falso que la puedas hacer.
