Apple Devices is a Windows application created to manage, back up, restore, and sync Apple devices (iPhone, iPad, iPod) directly from a PC.[2] It was released in February 2024[3] and is part of Apple's split of iTunes into separate apps.[4] The application is distributed through the Microsoft Store for Windows 10 version 22H2 and later and is unique to Windows, because device management functionality is integrated into Finder on macOS.[5]

Similar to the build of iTunes released through the Microsoft Store, Apple Devices utilizes an embedded copy of Apple Application Support,[6] along with its components such as MobileDevice.[7] In contrast to iTunes, which relies on a port of macOS's AppKit to Win32, Apple Devices has been rebuilt using the Windows Runtime and Windows UI Library.[citation needed] It leverages the AMPDevices core frameworks, akin to those employed by Finder.[citation needed]
