Check out the most comprehensive jailbreaking coverage on the internet, including the latest news, apps, tweaks, and detailed tutorials about everything jailbreak.
Just last week, we told you about a fork of the Serotonin semi-jailbreak called NathanLR by iOS developer Nathan (@dedbeddedbed) that improves compatibility with rootless-oriented jailbreak tweaks and uses a more reliable exploit — the same one used by TrollInstallerX.
Anyone who has a CarPlay-enabled vehicle knows just how convenient the additional iPhone connectivity features can be. CarPlay allows certain iPhone apps to run on the vehicle’s head unit, making those features more accessible and safer to use while driving. Unfortunately, some features are locked out for obvious safety reasons.
Aemulo, one of the most comprehensive jailbreak tweaks for tinkering with the Near Field Communications (NFC) capabilities of jailbroken iPhones, has apparently moved from the Chariz to the Havoc repository in a move that developer Amy While (@elihwyma) says is primarily motivated by the need for alternative payment options.
While the jailbreak community certainly isn’t bustling with a new jailbreak every few months like the glory days, there are still tons of developers maintaining jailbreaks and tweaks to further the dream.
It was only yesterday that Epic Games announced the availability of its massively popular Fortnite mobile game for the iPhone and iPad in the European Union via both the AltStore PAL and Epic Games Store alternative marketplaces.
Apple released iOS & iPadOS 17.6.1 just last week with important bug fixes and security improvements for iPhones and iPads alike. Unfortunately, Apple has also once again blockaded firmware downgrades by choosing to stop signing the previous firmware – iOS & iPadOS 17.6.
Before the Dopamine v2 jailbreak came out, the Serotonin semi-jailbreak was all the rage because it allowed users to install and use various forms of jailbreak tweaks without the full jailbreak environment. Serotonin remains relevant on iOS & iPadOS 16.5.1-16.6.1 even today because these firmware versions aren’t yet jailbreakable on arm64e devices. Serotonin, on the other hand, does support them.
What do you get when you combine beautiful gradient-based wallpapers with animations? Eye candy; but that answer should be obvious, of course.
Jailbreaking has been a beloved hobby of mine since iOS 3, and in that timeframe, there would almost always be a new jailbreak release shortly after Apple came out with a new firmware update in the Fall months. Fast-forward to modern times, and it seems we’re waiting ever so longer for jailbreaks to release, and lots of jailbreakers want to know why.
I’ve long been a user of the SF Symbols app that Apple offers for macOS because it lends an extensive library of more than 6,000 unique symbols that Apple’s many operating systems use and that blend seamlessly with the San Francisco system font of those systems.
It’s always rough when we’re stuck saying our goodbyes to talent in the jailbreak tweak development community, but unfortunately that’s the news we have for you today.
