Tigris Dev Team Working on an iOS 11 Jailbreak

Postby Grace Liu » 30 Jun 2017 11:12

I believe that all of iFans have been waiting for the new jailbreak for so long, but here is the good news.

Eminent tweak developer Antique Dev has just made a huge announcement.

Developer Antique Dev is known as a reputable tweak developer within the community. However, he is now planning to move onto security research and hacking.

Here’s a tweet from Antique Dev’s official Twitter handle.

He has already formed a dev team called “Tigris” comprising Antique Dev and other notable hackers and developers. Tigris Dev Team will be working to develop a jailbreak for the upcoming versions of iOS 11 firmware.

The upcoming Tigris jailbreak will be compatible with all 64-bit devices running iOS 11 firmware. It will be fully stable and semi-untethered at least.

The Tigris Dev Team also intends to port iOS 11 jailbreak to iOS 10.3.x if their exploits remain functional.

The team also has some other members apart from the developers given above. They only have 2 iOS devices at the moment – iPod Touch 6G and iPhone 6.

The name “Tigris” is a reference to the codename of iOS 11 firmware, “TigrisSeed”.

Tigris Jailbreak release date
I wasn’t able to ascertain more details about this upcoming jailbreak. I don’t think they possess a 0-day exploit like Team Pangu.

Hopefully, Antique Dev will release a few more teasers and details before the jailbreak goes live.

Antique Dev is highly trusted and releases tweaks free of cost for the jailbreak community. However, Tigris Dev Team is a new team on the scene and hence it might take them some time to release a working jailbreak.

It’s still great to have a new team come forward and announcing a jailbreak because not many hackers are willing to work on a jailbreak now.

One thing is sure – we will be getting a jailbreak this time around.
