AppCola

AppCola is an excellent replacement for iTunes. It lets you manage the contents of an iPhone much easier. The software gives you instant access to an iPhone's contained pictures, music, apps, contacts, messages and much more. It also provides a wide array of tools, for optimizing your phone and for keeping it in good working condition. If you are not a fan of the convoluted controls iTunes places at your disposal, than this piece of software is definitely worth trying.

The software is free and it works on all popular Windows platforms. Its setup file is fairly small and you can install its components in under a minute. The hardware requirements are modest and you don't have to install any additional tools, if you already have iTunes on your computer.

You can manage various aspects of a phone on AppCola's user interface, on separate tabs. Of course, you need to have your phone connected to your computer first, but the good part is that AppCola will detect it immediately, once you plug it in. You can view a series of general details about your phone on the first tab, where you can also access its apps and update them, go through the pictures and music libraries, view your contacts, messages and call log and more.

Besides managing existing apps, you can add new ones as well. You can browse through applications and games on separate tabs, but on the same kind of layout. The software provides various filters and search criteria, so you can find the apps and games you want much easier. Phone customization is another feature, which can be found on its own tab. AppCola lets you choose from various lock screen images and backgrounds, with different themes.

There is a good number of utilities you can turn to if your phone is not working properly. The software can check for trash data and remove it, identify large files and compress images, to clear up some storage space. Other tools can be used to create and import ringtones, fix crashing apps, shut down or restart the phone and more.

With AppCola, managing the data on an iPhone can be a quick and comfortable experience.
