iMazing new Version to support iPhone 16, iOS 18 and macOS Sequoia

We’re excited to announce the release of iMazing 3.2 for macOS, a free update that continues to expand iMazing 3's powerful device management capabilities. This release introduces support for Apple Watch, compatibility with the 2025 iPad lineup, and includes multiple enhancements and fixes.

This new version also restores app downloads from the App Store after Apple's server changes. We took the opportunity to add several new features to iMazing App Managment that enhance how users can manage iOS, iPadOS, and visionOS apps on their Mac through iMazing. These enhancements include app version history viewing, CSV file exports of app lists, the ability to pause and resume failed downloads, and other improvements.

Also for Apple admins and business users, we are extremely happy to announce iMazing Profile Editor 2, the free, totally redesigned app that brings smarter workflows and introduces an all new Total App Setup tool. Discover what iMazing Profile Editor 2 has to offer in this dedicated release post.

Note: We are still working on restoring apps downloads on Windows and will release iMazing 3.2 for Windows as soon as possible.
