Great news for the iOS 12 – 12.1.2 jailbreak! Hacker Pwn20wnd has given us a detailed look at the development stages of the next jailbreak utility. Apparently Pwn has successfully patched Cydia Substrate to run on iOS 12 (wow)!
News and Jailbreak Updates
While there’s no ETA yet, we’re getting closer. Stay tuned for full updates and check the below tweets for the development progress thus far (Twitter / Facebook).
Also you’ll notice that Pwn suggests fully avoiding the rootless jailbreak for iOS 12.1.2 (as we have a number of times in the past) – just hold out a little longer.
Avoid “Rootless” Jailbreak
You should not modify your filesystem so much before a full-fledged jailbreak with Cydia and Substrate support comes out.

What’s Left: to be released ASAP!
What’s left for the first public beta:
– Fix a bug in the CoreTrust workarounds
– Fix the sandbox patches
– Clean up the implementation
– Do more private testing to make sure that it is safe— Pwn20wnd (@Pwn20wnd) February 15, 2019
Cydia and Substrate support for iOS 12 hasn’t been released yet but we are planning to release a new public beta once it is ready for a public beta.
