Honest three-state integrity rating
Unearth never writes to your source disk. Scans are strictly read-only, so recovering deleted files cannot accidentally overwrite the very data you are trying to save.
Before you commit to anything, Unearth runs a real format validation on each file and shows an honest three-state rating: Looks intact, May be partial, or Failed. Photos, video, audio, PDFs, Office documents, and archives are all checked — nothing is called intact unless it truly passes.
Recovered files go to a destination of your choosing — not back to the source disk. Pick a folder on your Mac, an external drive, or any mounted volume.
No account, no activation, no network connection. Your data stays entirely on your machine — Unearth makes zero network calls from the moment you launch it.
No trial gate, no feature lock, no subscription. Download Unearth as a notarized Mac app and use every feature from day one at no cost.
Full deleted-file recovery on FAT16, FAT32, exFAT, and NTFS — SD cards, USB sticks, and external drives. Best-effort recovery on APFS, HFS+, and ext4 brings back existing files plus deleted files still held in snapshots or journals, and a deep signature scan can find file content on almost any disk.
