If you’ve ever used a semi-tethered jailbreak before, then you should be familiar with Cydia Impactor. Saurik (Jay Freeman) created this multi-platform application to let you side-load apps on your iPhone or iPad, especially of the jailbreak flavor, such as Electra and unc0ver.
Recently, a web-based alternative to Cydia Impactor called AppSigner received some public attention on /r/jailbreak, and as you might come to expect, prominent members of the jailbreak community are speaking up to explain why you should not use it.
Apple's iOS 12 software now powers three-quarters of all devices.
While most of us are celebrating New Year’s Day the old-fashioned way, others are taking full advantage of the holiday to propagate nefarious activities. As it would seem, a fake iOS 12 jailbreak is being tossed around in the wild.
Hacker and unc0ver lead developer Pwn20wnd hopped on Twitter early Tuesday morning to dismiss any confusion concerning the new of the fake iOS 12 jailbreak:
While you may work and create your spreadsheets in Numbers, there may be a time when you need one of those documents in the Microsoft Excel file format.

You can hide images from the Camera Roll in iOS’ native Photos app to prevent them from appearing in your image list, but hidden images are quickly discovered by prying eyes when someone holding your iPhone opens the “Hidden” album in the Photos app.
If you wish Apple took better care of your Hidden images, then you might enjoy a new free jailbreak tweak called HiddenAlbumLock by iOS developer smokin1337. Just as the name implies, this tweak locks the Hidden album and requires authentication to unlock it for viewing.
New Year’s Eve was a busy day for hacker and unc0ver lead-developer Pwn20wnd. Shortly after dropping the official public release of unc0ver v2.1.0, Pwn20wnd issued a quick revision for the jailbreak tool comprised of bug fixes.
Pwn20wnd announced the revision Monday evening via Twitter, noting that the contained fixes targeted “weird issues” being experienced by some users:
Moments after we published a story about the unc0ver v2.1.0 pre-release receiving its eleventh revision, hacker Pwn20wnd publicly released unc0ver v.2.1.0, officially bringing it out of its “pre-release” stages.
This is arguably one of the most significant updates to the unc0ver jailbreak tool to date, and Pwn20wnd made the official announcement via Twitter just minutes ago as of this writing:
It was just two weeks ago that Saurik (Jay Freeman) released an official update for Cydia Substrate with full support for the unc0ver jailbreak on iOS 11, but as you might have noticed, there’ve been some issues surrounding the release.
Cydia Substrate has received several updates since the initial release, primarily to fix ‘freezing’ and ‘respring looping’ issues that some users experienced after updating, but older handsets like the iPhone 5s and iPhone 6 continued to exhibit unexplained instability.

Hot off the heels of three Cydia Substrate updates released by Saurik throughout the night, the unc0ver v2.1.0 pre-release received two new revisions on Monday. These are the tenth and eleventh revisions to this particular pre-release version since Pwn20wnd released it for public testing more than two weeks ago.
Citing the changelog published on Pwn20wnd’s official GitHub repository, the two new unc0ver v2.1.0 pre-release revisions encompass the changes outlined below:
Apple designed iOS’ Now Playing interface to display relevant information about the music you listen to at any given time, such as the album artwork, artist name, and song title, but it also provides you with useful music controls in a pinch.
But one place where the Now Playing interface falls short is in summarizing what you can expect next in your music playlist, and that’s where a new jailbreak tweak called NextUp by iOS developer Andreas Henriksson comes into play.
