Backup, symbols & location

Device backup/restore, dyld shared-cache symbol fetching, and GPS simulation.

pymobiledevice3.services.mobilebackup2.Mobilebackup2Service

Bases: LockdownService

Client for the com.apple.mobilebackup2 service, the iTunes/Finder-style device backup protocol.

Drives full and incremental backups, restores, and the related operations (info, list, extract, unback, change password, erase device) over a DeviceLink channel. Backups can be filtered to a subset of files via a filter callback, and encrypted backups are supported (password required for filtering and restore). The right underlying service is selected automatically: SERVICE_NAME over classic lockdown, or RSD_SERVICE_NAME over RemoteXPC/RSD.

Inherits async context manager support from LockdownService; use within an async with block to manage the underlying connection.
