iphone backup not readable on macbook in text editor

Hi all,


I'm trying to open my iphone back up files in Finder on my macbook Cataline 10.15.5.

It is a text editor file and it opens in code which I cannot read.

How can I open my backup files in a readable non developer language?


iPhone 7, iOS 13

Those files are not intended to be read.


They are intended solely to be used with Apple gear.
