Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Considering 66 reviews, most reviewers were somewhat happy with their experience overall. Many customers found the application effective and easy to use, especially for data recovery, with some successfully retrieving important files they thought were lost. People appreciate its user-friendly interface and the ability to recover a large number of photos and other data quickly. Several users highlighted its reliability and seamless operation, particularly for managing BitLocker-protected drives and connecting to various external storage devices. However, some people were dissatisfied with the application's instability, reporting frequent crashes and difficulties with installation or opening the app on their MacBooks. A significant number of users experienced issues with external drives reverting to read-only status or being unable to enable write access, leading to frustration and inability to transfer files. Additionally, some found the instructions for uninstalling unclear, the free trial non-functional, or the software not working as expected on newer macOS versions, with some reporting system freezes.

my two Macs (iMac and Macbook) do not accept the iboysoft download without changing the safety level on the computers. I am just a normal user so I do not want to go as far down to the Kernel level. Also apple on their helpsite discourage you to do that and tell you that the possibility arises that the computers would not necessarily work after such a procedure .

Apple's new FSKit API is not yet open. Once it is open, our product will be compatible with it immediately, waiting for its update.

The internal hard drive is 4k sector size, it is why it requires destination hard drive same block size when using disk cloning when your external hard drive is not 4k sector size.

Besides, we have received your refund request, your order has been refunded.

Thanks for sharing your experience when using iBoysoft NTFS for Mac.

Enabling system extension is macOS's requirement. All NTFS for Mac programs need to enable system extension before writing NTFS drive on Mac, its setup process is the same. If you have any problem, please feel free to contact our support: support@iboysoft.com.

Started off great, experienced technical issues

Seems like it would have been a good option, but got stuck after enabling system extensions. System freeze didn't allow the solution to be used.
