What does Aiseesoft FoneLab Android Data Recovery do?

It recovers deleted or lost data from Android phones, tablets, SD cards, SIM cards, and Google Drive backups, saving the results to a Windows or Mac computer. Recoverable items include text messages with attachments, contacts, call history, photos, videos, music, WhatsApp files, and documents in formats such as Word, Excel, PPT, PDF, Zip, and RAR. The workflow connects the device over USB, enables USB debugging, and installs a small FoneGo helper app so the program can read the storage. You scan, preview the detected items, then recover only what you select, which avoids touching the rest of the phone.

What is the difference between the free version and the Pro edition?

The free Android Data Recovery edition recovers only text-based data: contacts, call history, and text messages with attachments. The paid FoneLab edition adds photo, video, music, and document recovery, a Deep Scan mode, and support for newer Android releases including Android 16. Both editions can scan and preview, and both include an assisted rooting step. If you lost only contacts or SMS, the free tier may be enough; for media or files you need the Pro edition.

Does it work with iPhone or move data between iOS and Android?

No. It recovers Android data only; iPhone, iPad, and iPod recovery needs the separate Aiseesoft FoneLab iPhone Data Recovery product. It is also a recovery and backup tool rather than a phone-to-phone transfer utility, so it cannot move WhatsApp or other content directly from an iPhone to an Android device. Buyers expecting cross-platform mobile transfer should choose a dedicated transfer tool instead. For Android-only recovery, it reads internal storage, SD card, SIM card, and Google Drive backups.

Do I need to root my Android phone to recover deleted files?

Backing up data that still exists on the phone works without rooting. Recovering deleted media and documents from internal storage often requires root access so the software can read the areas where deleted files still sit. The program lists an assisted rooting step in both the free and paid editions to help with this. Because rooting carries risk, check that your exact device model is supported and save anything still readable before you start.

Which Android brands and data sources are supported?

It recovers from Android phones and tablets by Samsung, Sony, LG, HTC, Huawei, Motorola, and Xiaomi, among others. Data can be pulled from internal memory, an SD card, the SIM card, or a Google Drive backup. From Google Drive it restores contacts, Wi-Fi passwords, text messages, call history, and calendar entries without rooting the device. Recovered contacts can then be exported as VCF, CSV, or HTML files for re-import or archiving.

Frequently asked questions about Aiseesoft FoneLab Android Data Recovery

Can I scan and preview my data before paying?

Yes. The trial scans the device and shows detected items in a preview, including image previews for unregistered users, but a license is required to actually save the recovered files. This lets you confirm that the items you need are still recoverable before buying.

Can it recover data from a broken or black-screen phone?

The Android Data Recovery module works with functioning devices that can enable USB debugging. Extracting data from broken or black-screen phones is handled by a separate Aiseesoft tool and is limited to a short list of older Samsung models, such as the Galaxy S4 to S6 and Note 3 to 5. Do not assume broken-device extraction is part of this product.
