In case you didn’t know, there’s a nifty package manager app called PureKFD for MacDirtyCow and kfd exploit-compatible add-ons that can be acquired from Misaka and Picasso-based repositories.
We previously showed you how to install PureKFD with TrollStore on iOS & iPadOS 15.0-15.4.1, but if you’re running any version of iOS or iPadOS 16, or any version of iOS or iPadOS that is newer than 15.4.1, then you won’t have the option to use TrollStore; you’ll need to sideload PureKFD instead.
After sideloading PureKFD, you can search for and install add-ons that utilize the MacDirtyCow exploit for iOS & iPadOS 15.0-16.1.2 or the kfd exploit for iOS & iPadOS 16.0-16.6 beta 1. These add-ons, unlike jailbreak tweaks, do not require you to be jailbroken to use.
In today’s tutorial, we’ll show you how to sideload PureKFD on a compatible iPhone or iPad using Sideloadly, which can be used on both macOS and Windows computers to install non-App Store apps on Apple-branded mobile devices.
