How to Backup iPhones and iPads without iTunes Using DearMob?

Apple Mobile Devices rely on iTunes to back up and restore data, but that gets very annoying at times. Sometimes you might keep getting the error that iTunes could not back up the iPhone because an error occurred. You might never be able to understand what brought that error pop-up. So it could get really frustrating relying on a single app to do all the backup and transfer related job.

However, there are some good apps that work much better than Apple’s iTunes application and set you free from many limitations. After testing a few, we found DearMob to be a better alternative to iTunes that we will talk about.
