Part 2: Aiseesoft FoneTrans Performance in All Aspects
Connect iOS to PC
Aiseesoft FoneTrans requires users to connect an iOS device to a computer with a USB cable. After you unlock the mobile device and choose "Trust", the software recognizes the iOS device immediately. As long as you successfully establish the connection. Once the two devices have been successfully paired, subsequent connections will not require unlocking or clicking "Trust" again.
Scan and Preview Data
FoneTrans will automatically scan your photos, music, videos, and books after the connection, but as for other data types, your grant is needed to fund the data backup and analysis. To continue, you can tap "Start".
Then enter your passcode on your iOS device, and click "Continue". The software will ask you to enter your passcode several times for different data types. Once done, you can view your data on your PC.
To our surprise, FoneTrans supports not only previewing the thumbnails of media files but also viewing big pictures and playing video and audio files by double-clicking a file.

Transfer Data
The trial version allows you to import and export 10 messages, 10 contacts, 10 music files, 20 pictures, and 10 videos. Thus, you can check the file transfer rate before purchasing the full version. In our tests, Aiseesoft FoneTrans transferred a file of 15 MB within 3 seconds on average. But please note that the transfer speed is also affected by the type of transfer interface (such as USB 2.0, USB 3.0, or USB-C) and storage device (like HDD, SSD, or flash drive).
Back Up and Restore Contacts
Aiseesoft FoneTrans supports one-click backup or restore of all contacts. You can go to "Toolbox" and choose "Contacts Backup" or "Contacts Restore" to start the process. However, this feature is limited with the trial version.

FoneTrans allows you to edit current contacts, add new contacts, and delete useless ones. You can modify the name, phone numbers, email, birthday, social profile, etc. As long as you register the software, it can sync your modification to your iOS device automatically.
Convert HEIC Images
Aiseesoft FoneTrans is also a HEIC converter, supporting you to add HEIC photos from your iOS device or computer, and then transform all of them to JPEG or PNG with 100% quality at once. But if you want to save the converted images, you need to register the program.
Generate Ringtones
Ringtone Maker is not a free feature, which enables you to add an audio file, and then select your desired section by setting the starting and ending points. It also allows you to adjust the volume, and the time of fade-in and fade-out. Then save the customized ringtone.
Device to Device Transfer
FoneTrans provides two modes to transfer all photos from your iOS device to your computer. The "New Photos Transfer" mode can help you transfer new photos and skip the pictures of the same names.
