When the iOS 13 update was released, a group of hackers found an “unpatchable” vulnerability that enabled permanent jailbreak on all A-series iPhones and iPads up to the A11 Bionic. In 2021, another jailbreak tool brought support for newer devices running iOS 14, such as the iPhone 12. Now it looks like we’re getting closer to the first iOS 15 compatible iPhone jailbreak tool.
iOS 16 public beta released: How to install on iPhones?
iOS 15 jailbreak tool
One of the developers behind the Odyssey team has confirmed that good progress has been made with the tool on a social networking platform and it will be available to everyone in the near future. Unfortunately, the Cheyote jailbreak tool has some limitations as it works with versions from iOS 15.0 to iOS 15.1.1 released in November 2021.
The team says they are working to expand support for versions up to iOS 15.4. This is because Apple has made internal changes to iOS to make jailbreaking harder to work with recent versions of the operating system.
First jailbreak for iPhone 13 series
When Cheyote becomes available, it will be the first jailbreak tool to run on iOS 15 for iPhone 13 series and iPad Mini 6 devices. On the other hand, hackers find it difficult to create jailbreak tools for Apple devices. These tools take a long time to release and they do not work with the latest versions of iOS. This means that if you are in the habit of updating your iPhone and iPad to the latest version, you cannot jailbreak it.
iOS 16 final version will be released in September. It’s getting less exciting that the jailbreak tool for iOS 15 is coming.
