In case of forgetting the whole password be prepared to wait for a long time IMyFone KeyGenius The chances of losing your iOS device data, either by infected, damaged, or lost device, and at the same time also forgetting your iTunes backup password are low, but it does happen. This is where apps like iMyFone KeyGenius come in handy. So, let's see what this app is all about.

Its interface is otherwise well-designed and minimalistic. Besides its main functionality of unlocking iTunes backup, it also offers an option for removing backup encryption entirely from your device. All of the steps for unlocking the device or disabling encryption are really easy with all the necessary information provided along the way.
Another thing that makes this application useful is that it offers three ways of decrypting the password, two of which are brute-force attacks with one attack with a known part of the password. The third possible decryption type is by using a dictionary.

So, in case you really need the data that was on the iOS device, you can use iMyFone KeyGenius as a last resort for getting it back, but in case of strong passwords and without knowing even part of the password, be prepared to wait for a long time.
