What’s New? ADF PRO v6.2.0 Features and Enhancements

New product releases always make me happy because they allow me to showcase the hard work our developers have invested in our tool and the extensive testing that leads us to this stage. Every release is unique; some focus on new features, others on artifacts, and some enhance the user experience. This month, with version 6.2.0, we have a little bit of everything. Let's jump in!

Empower Your Experience

We are user-driven, meaning we actively listen to our users. With each release, we incorporate features, fixes, and new artifacts at the request of our users. In addition to our daily interactions, we have a program for “super users”. These individuals have a direct line to our development team, where they can provide feedback and suggest new ideas. They also gain access to early release candidates for real-world testing, along with other perks that make this program beneficial. If you consider yourself an ADF Super User or a forensic examiner extraordinaire, please reach out to us. We are always looking to welcome new members to our team.

Updates for Your Favorite Apps

Artifacts play a crucial role in ADF tools and can be quite unpredictable; what works today might not work tomorrow. Rest assured, our teams are constantly working to ensure that when you select an item for parsing, you receive exactly what you expect. This month's release brings us updates to several artifacts that are already implemented, such as Snapchat, Telegram, TikTok, Tinder and WhatsApp. Additionally, we are introducing support for Apple Wallet financial transactions from iOS. 

Elevate Your Analysis

Enhancements to the user interface are always appreciated, as they aim to make your examinations and analysis easier. ADF tools have always been user-friendly, but a recent enhancement, the addition of a Home Button on every page, has garnered significant excitement from users. Additionally, we have made two key updates to the viewer section based on user input and request. You can now view your artifacts organized by apps as well as organized by artifact type, giving you a choice on how you are analyzing your data. We have also added a messages thread view in addition to the individual messages records, again giving you latitude in your analysis.

See Everything Together

One of the major improvements in this release is our acquisitions feature. Now, when you create an acquisition using ADF PRO or Mobile Device Investigator, there is a dedicated acquisitions screen where you can view and manage all your acquisitions in one place. Additionally, the acquisition process now allows you to add forms to the acquisition even if you are not going to scan it immediately. 

Conclusion

At ADF, we are driven by our mission to serve those who serve others. Some of our most exciting times come when we add new features and capabilities, as well as when we learn how these enhancements are being utilized. Of course, launch day is always a highlight for us as we release new features. We hope you'll love what we've created!
