Reviewing AnyTrans
User-Interface
The first and the foremost thing that anyone notices of the app is its User-interface. So as soon as I opened AnyTrans app, it was a treat to watch its UI style. The interface has small menu-icons on the top and as soon as you hover the mouse on any of these icons, it shows you the details about the menu-item. It is a clean Interface with white background and a lot of white space that means that it is not crowded with categories or menu-items. Moreover, it also allows you to change the appearance of the software-interface by choosing from four different themes.
Speed
The connectivity to your iOS device is fast and it readily detects the iPhone and displays all the categories of the iPhone on the left sidebar. I attempted to download an English video song titled “Jennifer Lopez-On the Floor Ft. Pitbull” in Full HD resolution that was 4.26 minutes long. You can select the download options and I selected the default download location of “downloads” on my local drive. So the software took just 50 seconds to download the whole video song. So I liked the downloading speed of AnyTrans App.
