Electra Jailbreak’s latest version is out now. The new Electra Jailbreak now supports iOS 11.3.1. If you own a 64-bit iPhone, iPad or the iPod Touch, you can now Jailbreak it. Jailbreaking your iOS 11.3.1 powered device will let you install all the apps and perform all the tasks that Apple has apparently restricted the users from.
Electra Jailbreak was working well with the iOS 11.2. However, the users having their devices updated to iOS 11.3.1 were eagerly waiting for the solution. Electra Developers have surprised the iOS 11.3.1 users now and they are free to cross the boundaries. Those of you who have absolutely no idea about what Jailbreak is, let us get the answer first.
Jailbreaking basically unleashes the true capabilities of your iPhone. The iPhones, iPods and the iPads are much more capable than their stock forms. The most popular and use of Jailbreaking an iPhone is to be able to install the applications which are not authorized by Apple. For this purpose, there is the Cydia Store which is full of such applications. The Cydia Store is also a house to a number of applications which are paid originally, but the store provides all those apps for free.
Apple doesn’t allow the retro gaming emulators in its official App Store. However, you can find those emulators in the Cydia Store and if you are 90’s kids, you will absolutely love playing those games. iOS users can also modify various aspects of the UI with the help of Jailbreak. The behavior of applications can be tweaked as well. With having your device Jailbroken, you no longer have to follow what Apple sets you towards. Jailbreak brings the actual freedom that you need on your expensive iPhone.
If you have ever had an experience of using an Android phone, you must have heard of root access and custom ROMs. Jailbreak is somewhat similar. Rooting an Android phone or installing a custom ROM is incredibly easy. The same is not the case when it comes to iOS. Since iOS is a more than hard nut to crack, the users are always excited to find Jailbreak for the latest version of iOS. I hope that you have a clear understanding of Jailbreak now. Let’s go ahead towards the tutorial to Jailbreak iOS 11.3.1 using Electra.
