The jailbreak community is brimming with constant updates regarding the development of jailbreak for iOS 12/12+. Recently jailbreak for iOS 12.1 on iPhone XS Max was achieved by Keen Labs. However, being a security research company it is highly unlikely that they will release the jailbreak in public. Also, UnC0ver Jailbreak launched a V 2.0.0 for iOS 11.4/11.4.1 with support for Cydia substrate. Each and every day new exploits are coming up and the time is not far away when a working jailbreak tool will be released for iOS 12/12+ for the general jailbreak community.
Each and every exploit brings in a new ray of hope to the jailbreak enthusiasts who are eagerly waiting for iOS 12 jailbreak. Recently, Apple hacker, Linus Henze released a WebKit Regex exploit for iOS 12.1/12.1.1 which, according to Alibaba’s cyber team, has the potential to play a critical role in developing a working jailbreak tool for iOS 12/12+. Now, Reddit developer JohnLough has launched an application named as Cydia Explorer for iOS 12+ which enables iPhone/iPad users to browse Cydia repos on their iOS device.
