In case you’ve been living under a rock, there’s a checkm8 bootrom exploit-based jailbreak out there for A9-A11 devices running iOS or iPadOS 15.0-16.x called palera1n. While palera1n is primarily intended for developers, it also has the strongest foothold in the iOS & iPadOS 15 community out of any jailbreak as of this moment.
