Although Apple has long introduced the "file sharing" feature, it still has to sync files through iTunes. However, almost all Apple fans know that syncing files through iTunes is notoriously cumbersome and slow (especially on Windows platform), is very resource-intensive, and the program itself is very bloated in file size.

As a result, most often we have to consider using some third-party alternatives. Thereinto, iExplorer (not an acronym of the Internet Explorer web browser) is a very light and fast iTunes-free file syncing tool for Windows and Mac platforms. It allows users to easily manage all kinds of data on their iOS devices without having to hack the iOS system.

iExplorer gives users easy access to the app directory and photo catalog (such as photos in the iPhone's photo library) on iPhone/iPad, and many contents created through other third-party programs (such as photos taken using Camera+) can be read directly on a computer via iExplorer.

Compared to iTunes, iExplorer is much smaller in file size, runs much faster, uses much less system resource, and transfers music, messages (SMS, email, etc.), photos, files, videos, and any other content from any version of iOS based device (iPhone, iPod, iPad, or iTunes backup) to any Mac and Windows system without iOS jailbreaking required at all.
