Oh man, just when you thought that the iOS 11 scene was done and over with, more stuff happens. A lot of you are already aware of the Electra jailbreak for iOS 11. Some of you may even be aware that there was a new exploit that made it not so finicky. However, we’re not here to talk about Electra today. This time around we’re going to discuss unc0ver for iOS 11, why you want it over the other jailbreak, and how to install it right on your phone without a PC!

So that is a major breakdown of all of the amenities that unc0ver has to offer. This is all on top of the fact that you get to use Cydia by default. But, if you know how to do it, you can also install Sileo. This would add just another reason to be jailbroken in the first place.
Instructions (Must use these from your phone):
-
1. Go to this link.
-
2. Tap the little icon in the lower left corner that looks like a box with an arrow coming out of it. Warning, there may be a random pop up at some point that looks like it is legit. Asking if you want to install a VPN. Just close it by pressing the X in the upper lefthand corner and continue on.

6. Choose the Install button.

7.unc0ver will then be somewhere on your home screen, ignore it for now.

9. Go into the unc0ver app on your home screen and tap the blue Jailbreak button.
