hi,
with NVDA, no. the furthest I got with these things, was the demo
version of iExplore, with a combination of narrator and NVDA on windows
10. this one, when I tried the demo, unless I'm confusing it, on the
windows side of things, was no hope.

app does cost $40. So you don't want to buy it unless it's accessible.
That might be why maybe nobody's tried it yet.

iMazing 2.2 review: A better way to use your Mac to manage your iPhone
and iPad
Macworld / J.R. Bookwalter
iMazing <https://imazing.com> ($40 for a single-user license; multi-user
licenses available) is an iOS device management utility designed as an
alternative to iTunes. Available for Mac or PC (the license can be used
on either platform), iMazing doesn’t sync files in the traditional
sense, but rather acts as a conduit for transferring files between
desktop computers and iPhone, iPad, or iPod devices.
Think of iMazing as iTunes without media purchasing or playback, but a
whole lot more versatile. iMazing also does many things Apple’s media
player can only dream of, like exporting iMessage conversations. Annoyed
by how iTunes saves device backups on your internal drive? With iMazing,
you can store these enormous files anywhere you’d like, and browse
archives with Time Machine-style simplicity. (Archives work on Mac or
PC-formatted volumes, not on network-attached storage devices.)

iMazing allows iOS device backups to be saved anywhere, but only Mac or
PC formatted volumes work for archives.
In addition to managing apps, photos, music, videos, notes, call logs,
and voice memos, iMazing 2.2 adds the ability to transfer ebooks and PDF
documents to iBooks. Better yet, photos can now be transferred from
computer to iOS via drag-and-drop, although albums created this way
can’t be deleted from the Photos app and won’t be included in backups.
There are other limitations to be aware of. Certain data types including
Messages, call history, voicemail, Contacts, and Notes can only be
accessed from a backup, rather than the device itself. As a result,
iMazing occasionally feels slower to use than iTunes. My personal pet
peeve is how long the application takes to perform an initial scan of
iCloud Photo Library thumbnails, although devices with fewer images
won’t have this problem.

iMazing can also access and export text messages, but only from an
existing device backup.
Restore and transfer
One of iMazing’s coolest features is the ability to copy content between
devices, quite handy for upgrading to a new iPhone or iPad. Rather than
restore from iTunes or a lengthy iCloud backup, you simply connect both
devices, start the transfer, and sit back while the software does its
thing. It’s a more streamlined process that puts Apple’s cumbersome
method to shame.
iMazing 2.2 makes other welcome improvements to the traditionally
front-loaded restore process. Rather than having to connect a new device
via Wi-Fi to activate and update to the latest version of iOS, iMazing
seamlessly handles these tasks as part of its restore wizard.

Restoring backups to a new device just got way easier thanks to
iMazing’s one-click transfer wizard.
You’ll endure fewer annoying iOS Setup Assistant screens during a
restore, since the software automatically takes care of many account
login prompts for you. (Signing in to install App Store updates is still
required, however.) Similar conveniences extend to updating or
reinstalling iOS itself. Since devices are always connected to the
utility over Wi-Fi, iMazing detects when the current version is out of
date and offers to update with a click.
You can also do the same with a complete reinstall, even during a
restore. Although like iTunes, you won’t be able to downgrade to older
iOS versions once Apple has stopped signing them. There are plenty of
smaller improvements too, like a new preferences tab for Devices, with
options to prevent iTunes from performing automatic backups or launching
after connecting a device.
Bottom line
Keep iTunes around for buying or playing media files, but when it comes
to managing iOS devices and transferring media files, it doesn’t get
much better than iMazing 2.
