Retrieving a particular file from the app sandbox can be difficult. This tool can extract all the files from a backup archive, and then you can view the sandbox filesystem as it was originally stored in your iPhone or iPad. Install Download From GitHub Releases For Mac users, you can download the pre-built binaries directly from the releases page. Build Locally To build the project locally, use Cargo: Usage First, locate the backup archive you want to extract. Usually, they can be found in /Users/ /Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup The archive is a directory that contains a Manifest.db file.

However, never work on the only copy of your data!
