SSH (Secure SHell) is a network protocol that allows one computer/device to securely connect to a destination device (the iPhone in this case). Once connected to can see the file system of the target iPhone, copy/move/delete files and folders, and more. On Windows you can use WinSCP to easily establish a SSH connection.
Download and launch WinSCP, then set the connection options as follows:
-
Host/server:
the iPhone's IP address (refer to
this FAQ to discover how to retrieve it)
-
Username: root
-
Password: alpine
-
File protocol: SFTP
Finally click Login and you should be connected to the iPhone. You can then start browing the iPhone's content, copy files etc.
