Check out the most comprehensive jailbreaking coverage on the internet, including the latest news, apps, tweaks, and detailed tutorials about everything jailbreak.
Luca Todesco’s jailbreak for iOS 10.1.1 is now in beta, and jailbreak tweak developers have started jumping on the train early to begin releasing tweaks for the updated software.
One of the first is a new free jailbreak tweak called StatusSwitcher, which adds the Status Bar to the App Switcher on iOS 10 devices.
We've gone a long time without a jailbreak on Apple's latest firmware (iOS 10), but there's a chance we might be out of the dark tunnel, as iOS hacker Luca Todesco has launched a beta jailbreak with support for a limited set of devices on iOS 10.1.1. Obviously, we don't recommend using it yet until it's stabilized, but it's a start!
Regardless, those who are already jailbroken know that there were a small number of jailbreak tweak releases this week, and this roundup will put the spotlight on those. We'll show you our favorites first, and then move on to the rest afterwards.
One of the saving graces of using Twitter at night is the built-in night mode theme that lets you cut down on all the white space by switching to it a darker background with light text.
Once you enable this dark mode, your eyes can finally take the load off and stop straining, but Twitter doesn’t exactly make toggling this feature on and off a cinch. That’s where a new free jailbreak tweak called TwitterThemeToggler comes into play.
Snapchat is one of the world’s most popular ways to send photos and short video clips to friends, but it also comes with additional clutter inside the app that many users feel they could really do without. Among said clutter are the clickbait-like links in the Stories Tab.
A new free jailbreak tweak called SnapchatNoClickbait will help clean up the Snapchat app of all that junk for anyone who’s tired of looking at uninteresting links and information.
Luca Todesco, better known by his handle qwertyoruiop, has just announced that the first betas of his iOS 10 jailbreak dubbed yalu are now out.
But before anyone begins prancing around and laughing out loud with sheer unadulterated joy, there are some caveats to take note of, as well as some risks to discuss.
TL;DR: do not use this tool unless you know exactly what you are doing.
Apple has stopped signing iOS 10.1 and 10.1.1 on Tuesday in a move that's sure to choke the jailbreak community a little bit further. It's typical of Apple to follow this kind of behavior after a new firmware release, so it's not surprising this would happen as iOS 10.2 was released just over a week ago.
With the firmware no longer being signed, downgrades to iOS 10.1.1 are currently no longer possible, so if you've upgraded to iOS 10.2 recently or need to do a fresh restore of iOS 10.1.1 in iTunes, then you're out of luck.
Update: This guide is now outdated, and simpler methods are available. We recommend that users use our simpler guide on saving blobs with TSS Saver instead. This guide will remain up for advanced users, who may still want the flexibility of this approach.
This week started out pretty slow, but once the end of the week came around, things started to heat up for the jailbreak community pretty quickly.
In this roundup, we'll talk about all the new jailbreak tweak releases that became available in Cydia this week, starting with our favorites and moving on to the rest afterwards.
iOS hacker tihmstar has announced the upcoming release of his tool Prometheus. And no, it doesn't steal fire from the gods for you to foster the burgeoning potential of your race. Instead, he claims it will be the first tool capable of upgrading and downgrading 64-bit iOS devices to unsigned firmwares. If successful, this would be welcome news for the jailbreak community, allowing movement between firmwares for which you have saved your blobs, even after Apple's signing windows have closed.
Despite all of the new features the Notes app keeps getting in Apple’s iOS updates, one of the most basic things you still can’t do is change the text color.
A new free jailbreak tweak in Cydia called YouText gives you the ability to change both the text and background color of the Notes app, giving jailbreakers an added layer of customization in the Notes app they didn’t have before.
Scriblit is a new jailbreak tweak that lets you turn the display of your jailbroken iPhone or iPad into a virtual drawing canvas, allowing you to doodle all over or annotate just about anything you want.
With a slew of configuration options and tools to pick from, you can use Scriblit for a wide range of things, from helping someone out to toying around with photos, but how you use it will depend on your own creativity.
Netflix is one of the world’s most popular media streaming services in terms of movies and TV shows, and their mobile app is no exception to the service’s popularity.
On the other hand, that doesn’t mean the app is perfect, and that’s why a developer has made a new jailbreak tweak called FlixEnhancer, which brings a slew of new features and improvements to the native Netflix app for iOS.
