If you have prior knowledge about jailbreaking, select your iPad Model (Old or New) from the following or if you are new to jailbreak, you can learn everything about jailbreak by referring to the Jailbreak page.

Redensa is a brand new Jailbreak solution for iPadOS 18. First time it was released targeting iPadOS 17. Now upgraded for all iOS 17 versions as well as the latest iPadOS 18 beta. Redensa has an uncommon jailbreak method based on the iTerminal.

Checkra1n mirror is a newly released jailbreak alternative for iPadOS 17 -17.5.1 including iOS 17.6 beta. This is the latest method to create app code through CodeGen app. It is required to go ahead with the jailbreak process. Finally you can install the Cydia client on your iPad.

Palra1n is a checkm8 jailbreak with semi-tethered attributes. This was initially released for iOS/iPadOS 15 and later upgraded for iOS/ iPadOS 16 & higher too. It will let you jailbreak limited models of iPads up to A11.

Sileem Repo Extractor is a newly introduced jailbreak solution. It is specially designed for iOS / iPadOS 16. Now compatible with all iOS / iPadOS 16 versions up to iOS / iPadOS 16.7.8. It is the best way to install Jailbreak apps & tweaks on the latest version running iPads.

Uncover black edition is a very impressive Jailbreak solution for all latest iPads. It is based on the Web and runs the whole process online. This is a best alternative to Unc0ver semi-untethered jailbreak tool.

Zeon jailbreak repo extractor is one of the best iPad Jailbreak solutions. According to the Zeon developers, it can install many jailbreak apps including Cydia and Sileo for latest iPads as well as some old iPad models with Zeon.

As the semi-tethered jailbreak, Checkra1n works with many iPad models. Unfortunately, most of the latest iPads are not supported with the Checkra1n tool. But now you are able to experience virtual Checkra1n jailbreak with all the latest iPads.

Uncover semi untethered jailbreak is one of the easiest and most famous methods to jailbreak iPads. However, the latest iPad models are not compatible with the Unc0ver jailbreak. Unc0ver virtual jailbreak is the best solution for those who cannot use the Unc0ver jailbreak tool.

Unc0ver + Fugu jailbreak only compatible with iOS 14.5.1 and below versions. Also the latest Unc0ver jailbreak tool upgraded version is not compatible with iPads. Unc0ver v8.0.0 supports jailbreak iOS 14.6 to iOS 14.8 iPhones only. Please choose another method if you have upgraded your device iPadOS 14.6 or higher.

iPad 4th generation jailbreak is possible with H3lix, Meridian and G0blin jailbreak tools. iOS 10.3.4 is the latest version for iPad 4th. H3lix is the recommended jailbreak solution for iOS 10.3.4 running iPad 4th.

You can use Electra, Chimera tools to jailbreak these iPad Air air 1, iPad Mini 2 or 3 models. iOS 12.5.5 is the latest version for iPad mini 2/3 & iPad Air 1. So, we recommended Chimera Jailbreak for these iPad models.

Checkra1n is a semi-tethered Jailbreak for iOS 12 onwards. It is based on the Checkm8 based Hardware exploit. So it can not be patched via software update. It exists on A5-A11 iPads. So every iOS / iPadsOS which is capable of running on these devices will be compatible with Checkra1n Jailbreak.

iOS jailbreaking is the use of a privilege escalation exploit to remove software restrictions imposed by Apple on devices running iOS and iOS-based[a] operating systems. It is typically done through a series of kernel patches. A jailbroken device typically permits root access within the operating system and provides the right to install software unavailable through the App Store. Different devices and versions are exploited with a variety of tools. Apple views jailbreaking as a violation of the end-user license agreement and strongly cautions device owners not to try to achieve root access through the exploitation of vulnerabilities.[1]

While sometimes compared to rooting an Android device, jailbreaking bypasses several types of Apple prohibitions for the end-user. Since it includes modifying the operating system (enforced by a "locked bootloader"), installing non-officially approved (not available on the App Store) applications via sideloading, and granting the user elevated administration-level privileges (rooting), the concepts of iOS jailbreaking are therefore technically different from Android device rooting.

Expanding the feature set that Apple and its App Store have restricted is one of the motivations for jailbreaking.[2] Apple checks apps for compliance with its iOS Developer Program License Agreement[3] before accepting them for distribution in the App Store. However, the reasons for Apple to ban apps are not limited to safety and security and may be regarded as arbitrary and capricious.[4] In one case, Apple mistakenly banned an app by a Pulitzer-Winning cartoonist because it violated its developer license agreement, which specifically bans apps that "contain content that ridicules public figures."[5] To access banned apps,[6] users rely on jailbreaking to circumvent Apple's censorship of content and features. Jailbreaking permits the downloading of programs not approved by Apple,[7] such as user interface customization and tweaks.

Software programs that are available through APT or Installer.app (legacy) are not required to adhere to App Store guidelines. Most of them are not typical self-contained apps, but instead are extensions and customizations for iOS or other apps (commonly called tweaks).[8] Users can install these programs for purposes including personalization and customization of the interface using tweaks developed by developers and designers,[8] adding desired features such as access to the root file system and fixing annoyances,[9] and making development work on the device easier by providing access to the file system and command-line tools.[10][11] Many Chinese iOS device owners also jailbreak their phones to install third-party Chinese character input systems because they are easier to use than Apple's.[12]

Jailbreaking also opens the possibility for using software to unofficially unlock carrier-locked iPhones so they can be used with other carriers.[19] Software-based unlocks have been available since September 2007,[20] with each tool applying to a specific iPhone model and baseband version (or multiple models and versions).[21] This includes the iPhone 4S, iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS, and iPhone 3G models. An example of unlocking an iPhone through a Jailbreak utility would be Redsn0w. Through this software, iPhone users will be able to create a custom IPSW and unlock their device. Moreover, during the unlocking process, there are options to install Cydia the iPad baseband.

Cybercriminals may jailbreak an iPhone to install malware or target jailbroken iPhones on which malware can be installed more easily. The Italian cybersecurity company Hacking Team, which sells hacking software to law enforcement agencies, advised police to jailbreak iPhones to allow tracking software to be installed on them.[22][23]

On iOS devices, the installation of consumer software is generally restricted to installation through the App Store. Jailbreaking, therefore, allows the installation of pirated applications.[24] It has been suggested that a major motivation for Apple to prevent jailbreaking is to protect the income of its App Store, including third-party developers and allow the buildup of a sustainable market for third-party software.[25] However, the installation of pirated applications is also possible without jailbreaking, taking advantage of enterprise certificates to facilitate the distribution of modified or pirated releases of popular applications.[26]

A package manager or package-management system is a collection of software tools that automates the process of installing, upgrading, configuring, and removing computer programs. For jailbreaks, this is essential for the installation of third-party content. There are a few package managers specifically for jailbroken iOS devices, of which the most popular are Cydia, Sileo, Zebra and Installer 5.

Once a device is jailbroken, the built-in security is compromised due to the vast amount of kernel patches that go into building the tool. Security structures like Apple Mobile File Integrity, Sandbox, Read-Only Root File system, and trusted apps get disabled or otherwise tampered with, to achieve the goals of the jailbreaking tool. This, in turn, creates potential security issues for the user of a jailbroken device.

Users of a jailbroken device are also often forced to stay on an inferior iOS version that is no longer supported by Apple because newer versions usually cannot be jailbroken right away. This has the potential to introduce security issues because for these older versions there are known security vulnerabilities, exploits, and exploit proof of concepts published.

In March 2021, jailbreak developer GeoSn0w[27] released a tweak called iSecureOS which can alert the users of security issues found on their devices. The application works akin to antivirus software, in that it scans the files on the user's device and checks them against a database of known malware or unsafe repos.

In June 2021, ESET Research confirmed that malware did exist on one of the piracy repositories in the jailbreak community. The malware actively targeted iSecureOS to try to bypass the detection,[28] but updates to the security app were quickly released and have mitigated the malware.

Where Android rooting and jailbreaking are similar is that both are used to grant the owner of the device superuser system-level privileges, which may be transferred to one or more apps. However, unlike iOS phones and tablets, nearly all Android devices already offer an option to allow the user to sideload 3rd-party apps onto the device without having to install from an official source such as the Google Play store.[29] Many Android devices also provide owners the capability to modify or even replace the full operating system after unlocking the bootloader, although doing this requires a factory reset.[30][31][32]
