What you need to know about the semi-untethered jailbreak
A semi-untethered jailbreak is a jailbreak in which if your device restarts, the jailbreak will be disabled. What this means is that you will not be able to take advantage of any jailbreak tweaks you installed and Cydia will crash when it is launched. If you want to jailbreak your device once more, you will have to follow the steps given above.
Follow the steps given at the top and tell us how was your experience running the official iOS 11 jailbreak.
