Hello from a brand new (sandboxed for now) version of Installer 5.1 on iOS 16.
After a hiatus we’re back working on Installer. New information, builds and features soon! Make sure to follow for more information.
There is currently little known about the chain or stability of the potential jailbreak or its downsides. This message only serves to let people know not to update past 27.0.1.
For more information follow Calif (quoted) and @opa334dev on Mastodon: @[email protected]
Do *NOT* update beyond iOS 27.0.1 (which is currently signed!) if you are interested in jailbreaking.
There is a potential untethered (!) jailbreak for iOS 27.0.1 which will likely see a release at some unknown point in the future.
Repository Crawler is now available on the MacOS AppStore!

The MacOS Jailbreak Repository Crawler for APT (Cydia), Installer 3 & Installer 4 repositories will be released later today.
Allows archiving locally or uploading to a centralised archival repository, along with several other important features.
Follow @SamGuichelaar for more details and the beta release tomorrow. As this tool is trying to support 3 different repository architectures that have seen several evolutions over the past 20 years, some bugs are possible. We'd appreciate users to report them.
This project is part of a larger project mainly aimed at archiving and preserving access to legacy jailbreak packages, tools, source code and servers, and more will be announced in the coming weeks. Should anyone have a backup of a Cydia/APT or Installer 3/4 repository that is no
longer online, please send @SamGuichelaar a message, in order to contribute to a large archive of jailbreak tools that are no longer available at their original location.
AppTapp is releasing an extensive iOS Jailbreak Repository Archival/Crawler tool tomorrow.
it allows backing up packages from APT/Cydia, Installer 4, & Installer 3 repositories, either individually or all packages.
Over the last few years, many essential repositories
have (suddenly) gone down, meaning people permanently lost access to packages they relied on.
This tool allows anyone to easily download the packages (or entire repository) they need for local backup via a simple MacOS GUI.
For bad actors, this was already possible through CLI

Installer 5.1 compiled on MacOS 26 (catalyst).
Just compiled straight, as a proof of concept and to see what Installer’s UI & UX on MacOS is.
It will need rethinking in several areas for it to make it a MacOS package manager rather than an iOS app running on MacOS.
With jailbreaking being in it’s current state and no expectation of a significant revival soon, we’d like to know if there’s any interest in a package manager for MacOS.
At the moment, a pre-release injection engine is being developed (and currently in beta) by a developer.

Please discuss, and let us know your thoughts. Sharing would also be appreciated, since our previous account with almost 20k followers got suspended from twitter.
There are no guarantees, no promises. This is just to gauge interest.
We have learned a lot of lessons from our
Work on Installer 5 & 5.1, both on a personal & technical level.
Our technical groundwork on Installer 5.1 is still very up to date with the current state of iOS & MacOS, and is compatible with our vision for a MacOS package manager.
Let us know your thoughts.
